Question

what is the correct classification of a mixture in which both a solid and a liquid are visible?
a homogeneous mixture and a solution
a homogeneous mixture and a suspension
a heterogeneous mixture and a solution
a heterogeneous mixture and a suspension

Explanation:

A homogeneous mixture has a uniform composition throughout and the components are not visibly distinct. Since a solid and a liquid are visible in the given mixture, it is not homogeneous. A solution is a homogeneous mixture at the molecular - level. A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture where solid particles are dispersed in a liquid and the solid and liquid are visibly distinct. So, the mixture is a heterogeneous mixture and a suspension.

Answer:

a heterogeneous mixture and a suspension
