A homogenous mixture is a uniform mixture where the composition and properties of the mixture are the same throughout. The particles of the substances in a homogenous mixture are evenly distributed and cannot be easily separated. Examples of homogeneous mixtures include sugar dissolved in water, air, and saltwater.
On the other hand, a heterogeneous mixture involves the presence of two or more components, and the composition may vary from one part of the mixture to another. The particles of the substances in a heterogeneous mixture are not evenly distributed and can be easily separated by physical means. Examples of heterogeneous mixtures include oil and water, sand and water, and a mixture of nuts and raisins.
