What does it mean for a solution to be homogeneous?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Its composition is uniform throughout
A homogeneous solution has uniform composition and properties throughout every part of the sample. The solute particles are distributed evenly and are not seen as separate layers. Homogeneous does not specify a colour, does not require only solids, and does not mean the solvent is absent; a solvent is an essential component of a solution.
