Question

Which of the following is mixture backi g soda or carbon or honey or orange juice

Answer 1

Answer:

Honey

Explanation:

Backing soda:

Backing soda is a compound that is made up of only one kind of salt called NaHCO3 or sodium  hydrogen carbonate. All the molecules  of NaHCO3  are identical and we know that a mixture is something made up of two or more than two kinds of things, therefore baking soda cannot be referred to as mixture.

Carbon:

Carbon is not a mixture because its just an element that composed diffreent compounds by reacting with different other elements. In its oure form carbon is not a mixture, but if it is combined with some other substance it can form mixture.

Orange juice:

It depends on what kind of orange juice we are talking about. If we are talking about pure orange juice that is made from fresh oranges,then no - it cannot be called as mixture. However, if sugars,flavors and other preservatives are added like those available in market then it can be a mixture.

Honey:

Honey is a mixture of at-least 181 types of components in which most of all are sugars. These components mix through complex process and give the honey its specific sugary taste. You can see some of the constituent components of honey in attached figure.
