Question

In a homogeneous type of mixture, components can be differentiated by colour, shape or size

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Homogeneous mixtures

• The components present in a mixture are in the same phase, where we can not distinguish the presence of components with our naked eye
• Salt solution, and alloy are examples of homogeneous mixture

Heterogeneous mixtures

• The components present in the mixture are generally in different phase, we can distinguish the presence of components with our naked eye since they remain physically separate
• Sand in water is a good example of heterogeneous mixture

So it is very difficult to identify the components present in the mixture since they appeared to be a single substance (entity) but not different.

Therefore, the given statement is false. i.e In a homogeneous type of mixture, components can not be differentiated by colour, shape or size.
