Which of the following best represents a heterogeneous mixture? The components form a solution. The components are distributed unevenly. The components consist of a solvent and a solute. The components are distributed evenly.

Answer 1

The statement that best represents a heterogeneous mixture is: "The components are distributed unevenly."

In a heterogeneous mixture, the different components can often be seen and are not uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. This is in contrast to a homogeneous mixture (or solution), where the components are evenly distributed and cannot be easily distinguished.
