Could you define to me exactly how to decide what is heterogeneous and what is homogeneous? Like these for example:a. Iron oreb. Quartzc. Granited. Energy Drinke. Oil-and-vinegar salad dressingf. Saltg. rainwaterh. nitrogen ? ? ?Thank you :)
heterogeneous means you can tell the difference between its particles. homogeneous means you can't. so a generally iron ore is found with impurities, so heterogeneous. b Quartz is pure silica - SiO2 - Homogenous. c Granite is homogeneous d Homogenous e oil and vinegar do not mix, heterogeneous f homogeneous g rainwater is generally homogeneous, unless it has dirt in it :P h Nitrogen is homogeneous.
