Difference between Homogeneous and Heterogeneous mixture
Homogeneous mixture |
Heterogeneous mixture |
The mixture in which the component mixed with each other and its composition is uniform throughout the solution is known as homogeneous mixture. | The mixture during which the composition isn’t uniform throughout and also the different component are observed this mixture is thought as heterogeneous mixture. |
The composition of these mixture cannot separated easily. | The composition of these mixture separated easily. |
Homogeneous mixture component can not be seen easily with naked eyes. | Heterogeneous mixture component can be seen trough naked eyes. |
The particles in the homogeneous mixture posses same physical properties. | The particles in heterogeneous mixture posses different physical properties. |
We can easily find homogeneous mixture just looking it. | We can not easily find heterogeneous mixture just looking . |
Homo means “same” homogeneous mixture means the mixture which the component are same.
|
Hetero means “different” heterogeneous means the mixture which is from different component. |
This mixture has only one phase | This mixture has two or more phases. |
This mixture of component size are atom or molecular level. | This mixture component size are large. |
Ex. Saline water, sugar solution etc. | Ex. Mixture of sodium chloride and sand.
