Question

Milk is a heterogeneous mixture.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is

A

True

Heterogeneous mixtures are non-uniform solutions that can be separated into two (or more) individual substances by physical means (homogeneous mixtures cannot be).

a homogeneous mixture consists of a single phase. A heterogeneous mixture consists of two or more phases like oil and water they do not mix evenly, but instead from two separate layers.

Milk, for example, appears to be homogeneous, but when examined under a microscope, it clearly consists of tiny globules of fat and protein dispersed in water.

Therefore, Milk is a heterogeneous mixture.
