What is a mixture? Provide an example please.

1 answer

A mixture is a combination of two or more substances that are physically combined and can be separated using physical methods. The substances in a mixture retain their individual properties and do not undergo a chemical reaction.

An example of a mixture is a glass of sweetened iced tea. In this case, the sugar and tea are mixed together to form a homogeneous solution. The sugar molecules and tea molecules are dispersed throughout the solution but can still be separated by physical means like filtration or evaporation.
