Which of the following beverages is a homogeneous mixture?
A
Orange juice with pulp
B
Milk with cereal
C
Iced tea with lemon slices
D
Black coffee
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the definition of a homogeneous mixture: it is a mixture that has a uniform composition and appearance throughout, meaning you cannot distinguish different components with the naked eye.
Analyze each beverage option to determine if the components are uniformly distributed or visibly separate:
Orange juice with pulp contains solid pulp pieces suspended in the juice, making it a heterogeneous mixture because the pulp is not uniformly distributed.
Milk with cereal has solid cereal pieces mixed in the milk, which are visibly distinct, so it is a heterogeneous mixture.
Iced tea with lemon slices contains solid lemon slices floating in the tea, which are clearly separate phases, so it is heterogeneous.
Black coffee is a solution where coffee solutes are completely dissolved in water, resulting in a uniform composition with no visible separate parts, making it a homogeneous mixture.
