Mixes (Mixtures)

• A mixture is when two or more things are put together but they don’t change into something new.

• Example: Sand + salt, rice + dal, nuts + raisins.

• You can separate them easily.

Types of mixtures:

1. Homogeneous mixture – Looks the same everywhere (like sugar in water).

2. Heterogeneous mixture – You can see the different parts (like salad).

   2. Solutions

3. A solution is a special kind of mixture where one substance dissolves in another.

4. Example: Salt in water, sugar in tea.

5. You cannot separate it easily, because it looks the same everywhere.

Parts of a solution:

1. Solute – the thing that dissolves (salt, sugar).

2. Solvent – the thing that does the dissolving (water, milk).
