Answer : The true statement is, The atmosphere is an example of a solution.
Explanation :
Mixture : It is defined as the substance that is made by the combination of two or more different components.
Solution : It is a mixture in which the minor component (solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component (solvent).
Solute : It is the component which is present in smaller proportion and is solid for solid in liquid solution.
Solvent : It is the component which is present in larger proportion and is liquid for solid in liquid solution.
Homogeneous mixtures : It is defined as the mixtures that appears uniformly throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are not different.
Heterogeneous mixtures : It is defined as the mixtures which appears non-uniformly throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are also different.
- The atmosphere is an example of a solution.
This statement is true because atmosphere is an example of heterogeneous mixtures which is a part of solution.
- In a glass of sugar water, sugar is the solvent.
This statement is wrong because sugar is solute and water is solvent.
- The individual substances in a mixture lose their original chemical properties.
This statement is wrong because the individual substances in a mixture retain their original chemical properties.
Hence, the true statement is, The atmosphere is an example of a solution.
