2. Salt and pepper form is a pure example of a homogeneous mixture.

1. Only I
2. Only II
3. Both I & II
4. None I & II

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : Only I

The correct answer is Option(1).i.e.Only I.  

• A homogeneous mixture is a liquid, gaseous & solid mixture that has similar proportions throughout its components. 
• Salt and pepper form is a pure example of a heterogeneous mixture. 
• Mixture-
  • A mixture is described as a result of combining two or more substances.
  • Each substance maintains its chemical identity.
  • In other words, within the components of a mixture, a chemical reaction does not occur. 
• Homogeneous mixture:
  • A homogeneous mixture is a liquid, gaseous & solid mixture.
  • Throughout any given sample, it has the same proportions of its components 
  • The mixture has the composition throughout & the same uniform appearance in every step
  • Many homogeneous mixtures are generally referred to as solutions.
• Example:
  • Some examples of homogeneous mixtures:
    including air, mixture, saline solution, most alloys, and bitumen, blood, etc.
