Question

Classify vegetable soup as a pure substance or a mixture. if it is a pure substance, classify it as an element or a compound. if it is a mixture, classify it as a homogeneous or heterogeneous.

Answer 1

Heterogeneous mixture

Answer 2

The correct answer is Heterogeneous Mixture

Explanation:

In chemistry and related fields, a mixture refers to a substance that is composed of two or more substances. This is the opposite of a pure substance that has not been combined with others. In the case of the vegetable soup, this is a mixture because it integrates multiple substances such as water, salt, vegetables, etc.

On the other hand, a mixture is classified as homogeneous if the elements are completely integrated, and the final substance is uniform or as heterogeneous if the mixture is not uniform. In the case of the soup, this can be classified as a heterogeneous mixture because in most cases you can identify the elements in it such as pieces of vegetables and therefore it is not a uniform or homogeneous mixture.
