Question

Which of the following is a homogeneous mixture? a.sodium chloride b.oxygen c.salad d.salt water

Answer 1

Your answer to this is:
D. Salt water

Answer 2

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A mixture in which solute particles are unevenly distributed into the solvent then it is known as a heterogeneous mixture.

For example, salad is a heterogeneous mixture.

Components of a mixture never combine chemically with each other.

A homogeneous mixture is defined as the mixture in which solute particles are evenly distributed in a solvent.

A homogeneous mixture is a clear solution.

For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.

Sodium chloride is a chemical compound and not a mixture. Whereas oxygen is an element and not a mixture.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options salt water is a homogeneous mixture.
