Chapter 2, Problem 10STP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The figure that represents a heterogeneous mixture of two elements needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction: Practically all of the matter in environment consists of mixtures of different substance. For example, soil; it has many forms of components, air; it has mixture of many gases, etc.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 10STP

Correct answer: Option D.

Explanation of Solution

Reason for correct option: A non-uniform combination of the two different types of components is known as heterogeneous mixture. There more than one phase is present in this mixture.According to this, figure Drepresents a heterogeneous mixture of two elements.

Conclusion

Reasons for incorrect options:

Option A: Figure A does not satisfy the condition of a heterogeneous mixture of two elements.So, this is an incorrect option.

Option B: Figure B does not satisfy the condition of a heterogeneous mixture of two elements. So, this is an incorrect option.

Option C: Figure Cdoes not satisfy the condition of a heterogeneous mixture of two elements. So, this is an incorrect option.

Option E: Figure Edoes not satisfy the condition of a heterogeneous mixture of two elements. So, this is an incorrect option.
