How would milk be classified?

Question

homogeneous mixture

heterogeneous mixture

compound

pure substance

Answer 1

Milk can be classified as a heterogeneous mixture. It contains various components, including water, fats, proteins, lactose, and minerals, which do not fully blend uniformly, especially if it is not homogenized. However, in terms of appearances, if milk is homogenized, it may seem more uniform, but it is still a mixture and can separate over time.
