Question

Why can a solution be classified as a mixture?

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A solution can be classified as a mixture since both are made up of two substances that are not chemically combined. More specifically, it is referred to as an homogeneous mixture. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Answer: B. Both are made up of two substances that are not chemically combined

Explanation:

Mixture is a substance which has two or more components which do not combine chemically and do not have any fixed ratio in which they are present.

Heterogeneous mixtures  : It is a mixture that has non-uniform composition throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are also different.There is a physical boundary between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

Homogeneous mixtures  : It is a mixture that has uniform composition throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are not different.There is no physical boundary between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

Solution is a mixture made up of solute and solvent which do not combine chemically. They can be homogeneous or heterogeneous.

Thus a solution be classified as a mixture as both are made up of two substances that are not chemically combined
