A homogeneous mixture is made up of multiple different substances. (You can see different parts)
Ex: Cereal in milk or ice in soda

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that is mixed well. ( you can’t see the different parts)

You wake up in the morning and make yourself a cup of coffee. You pour the coffee in your cup, add milk, add sugar, and stir everything together. The result is a uniform cup of caffeinated goodness. Each sip should taste and look the same.

This is an example of a homogeneous mixture. In this type of mixture, the components are evenly distributed throughout and the mixture has a uniform appearance. You shouldn't be able to pick out the individual components. Additionally, you can describe a homogeneous mixture as having only one phase. A phase is any part of the mixture that has the same chemical properties and uniform distribution of the components.


Heterogeneous

When you're eating a bowl of cereal, you are consuming a heterogeneous mixture. You can easily see the different things that make up this mixture: the milk and the cereal. Each spoonful will have different distributions of the components.

A heterogeneous mixture has components that are not evenly distributed. This means that you can easily distinguish between the different components. A heterogeneous mixture has two or more phases. This doesn't necessarily mean phases of matter, like liquid or solid. For example, a mixture of water and oil has two liquid phases. Each phase has its own distinct chemical properties.

A pipe leaks water at a rate of 1.24 mL/s. What is the rate of the water leak in L/hr?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

b)4.46 L/hr

Explanation:

To solve this question we need to convert the mL to liters (Using the conversion of 1000mL = 1L) and convert the time from seconds to hours (3600s = 1hr)

<em>mL to L:</em>

1.24mL/s * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.00124L/s

<em>seconds to hours:</em>

0.00124L/s * (3600s / 1hr) = 4.46L/hr

Right answer is:

<h3>b)4.46 L/hr </h3>

Which is a postulate of the kinetic molecular theory of gases? Despite being very small, the volume occupied by the individual p
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The particles that compose a gas are so small compared to the distances between them that the volume of the individual particles can be assumed to be negligible.  

Explanation:

This is a postulate of the Kinetic Molecular Theory.

A is wrong. KMT assumes the that the volume of the particles is negligible.

B is wrong. KMT assumes that the distance between the particles is muck greater than their size.

D is wrong. It takes the large distances as a fact. KMT uses this as an assumption.
