What is Heterogeneous Mixture?
A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the composition is not uniform throughout, and the individual components can be physically distinguished. Examples include sand and water, oil and vinegar, and a bowl of trail mix. Heterogeneous mixtures can often be separated by physical means such as filtration, decantation, or centrifugation.
