A mixture is said to be homogeneous if its composition is uniform throughout the mixture. They are referred to as solutions. On the other hand, heterogeneous mixture does not have uniform composition. The substances present in the mixture have visible difference or phases.
Sea water is composed of salt, sand and water. Here, salt and water form homogeneous mixture but due to the presence of sand, the mixture is heterogeneous. Salt dissolves in water and the solution has uniform composition but sand does not dissolve in water, even after vigorous mixing, after some time it settles at the bottom resulting formation of layers. Thus, sea water containing salt, water and sand is a heterogeneous mixture.
Answer:
endothermic
Explanation:
the negative sign of the heat indicates that heat is being drawn into the system, thus endothermic
1. A filter was used to separate the sand from the salt water solution (The process of decanting was used if a filer was not available).
2. A Bunsen burner was used to boil away the water from the salt water solution leaving only salt.
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
