Question

max puts cereal in a bowl and pours milk over it. which term best describes max’s bowl of cereal? (1 point)
○ homogeneous mixture
○ heterogeneous mixture
○ pure substance
○ compound

Explanation:

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture where the components are not uniformly distributed and can be visually distinguished. In Max's bowl, cereal (solid) and milk (liquid) are distinct phases and not uniformly mixed, so it's a heterogeneous mixture. A homogeneous mixture has uniform composition (like salt water), a pure substance has a fixed composition (element or compound), and a compound is a pure substance with fixed chemical composition (not a mixture).

Answer:

heterogeneous mixture
