A homogeneous mixture is a combination of two or more substances that are evenly distributed throughout. In this type of mixture, the individual components cannot be easily distinguished from one another. Common examples include solutions like saltwater or air, where the different substances blend uniformly. In a homogeneous mixture, the properties are consistent throughout the sample. This means that any portion of the mixture will have the same composition and characteristics as any other portion. Unlike heterogeneous mixtures, where the components remain separate, homogeneous mixtures appear as a single phase to the naked eye.
