Homogeneous mixture
1.
2. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that has
only one phase. Its components have a uniform
composition and cannot be viewed separately in
the mixture. That is why it exhibits uniformity in
appearance and properties throughout the mixture.
The prefix homo- comes from the Greek word
homos, which means “the same”. It indicates that
the two substances combined together blended
well to form one uniform mixture, in which
individual particles cannot be distinguished.
3. Characteristics of Homogeneous
Mixtures
1. Homogeneous mixtures consist
of one phase.
Matter may exist in different
phase. These phases include solid,
liquid and gas. A homogeneous
mixture only has a single phase. It
can be of any of the following
combinations: liguid-liquid(e.g.,
water and alcohol), solid-solid (e.g.,
copper and tin), and gas-gas (e.g.,
4.
5. 2. The composition of homogeneous mixtures is
identical.
Since there is uniformity in the distribution of
particles in a homogeneous mixture, each of its portion
has the same composition and properties.
6. 3. Homogeneous mixtures look uniform in the
naked eye.
The first time that you look at homogeneous
mixtures, you might not able to distinguish their
components since they do not present any gap.
7. 4. Homogeneous mixtures cannot be filtered.
In order to separates mixtures, different physical or
mechanical processes may be used. However, if the mixture is
homogeneous,, the filtrate, or the liquid from which a substance has
been removed using a filter, will not achieve purification.
8. 5. Most homogeneous mixtures are transparent.
All homogeneous mixtures are transparent except
those which are homogeneous solid mixtures.
9. DIFFERENT KINDS OF HOMOGENEOUS MIXTURES
Homogeneous mixtures can be solids, liquids, or gas.
1. Solids
Solid homogeneous mixtures is present in alloys. An
alloy, is a mixture of elements that have characteristics of a
metal. One example of an alloy is steel which is made from a
mixture of iron and carbon. All of the different elements that
make up steel are spread evenly all through it.
10. 2. Liquids
A liquid homogeneous mixture is called a solution. A
solution is a mixture of two or more things that are mixed
up together evenly. In a solution, the substance that
dissolves another substance is known as the solvent. On the
other hand, the substance that is dissolved is called the
solute. In mixture, the solvent is usually present in greater
amount than the solute.
11. 3. Gases
Gases can be homogeneous mixtures too. The air that
you breathe is a homogeneous mixture. It is made up of
nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and many other gases,
but you cannot tell the difference between them when you
are breathing since they are all mixed up and spread out
evenly in the air.
12. BENEFICIAL USES OF HOMOGENEOUS
MIXTURES
Homogeneous mixtures play an important role in
your daily life. They exist in many forms and products that
you get to use everyday.
1. The air that you breathe is considered a homogeneous
mixture. It consists of different gases in certain
amounts. Each layer of air is a homogeneous mixture
on its own since layer of the Earth’s atmosphere has a
different density.
13. 2. The water that you drink and use is also an
example of a homogeneous mixture. The dissolved
minerals and gases that it contains are often
dissolved throughout the water. Even though tap
water and rain water may have different levels of
dissolved minerals and gases, they are both
considered homogeneous.
3. The mouthwash that you use to rinse your mouth
with is another example of a homogeneous
mixture. It kills the bacterial plaque in your mouth
that causes cavities, gingivitis, and bad breath.
14. 4. The blood plasma in your body is also an example of a
homogeneous mixture. It can be described as a colorless
fluid holding the blood cells in suspension. It accounts for a
little more than half of the volume of a human body.
5. The perfume or cologne that you use to smell good.
15. 6. The laundry detergent that you and your family use at
home. It is a homogeneous mixture of various soaps
and chemicals that keep clothes clean.
7. Also the vinegar. It is a man-made mixture that often
used in cooking and also used as cleaning agent.
8. The beverages that you drink (hot chocolates, juices,
and milk).
