Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
- A pure substance is defined as the substance that is made up of only one type of atom or only one type of molecule.
For example, is a molecule and it is a pure substance.
Also, substances that contain two or more different element which are chemically combined in a fixed ratio by mass are known as compounds. They are also pure substances.
A pure substance can only be separated by a chemical method and not by any physical method.
- A heterogeneous mixture is defined as the mixture which contains non-uniform composition of solute particles into the solution.
For example, mud dissolved in water.
It is not necessary that two or more substance present in a heterogeneous mixture should be of same phase.
Also, it is not necessary that combination of a liquid and a solid always results in a heterogeneous mixture.
If the solid is able to dissolve completely into the liquid then it will result in a homogeneous mixture.
- Whereas a homogeneous mixture is defined as the mixture which contains uniform distribution of solute particles into the solvent.
For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement composition is uniform throughout a homogeneous mixture, is correct.
