Respuesta :

A heterogeneous material is a mixture.
A heterogeneous mixture is not uniform in composition, but proportions of its components vary throughout the sample.

Example : wood material  is heterogeneous 

A heterogeneous material may be a mixture

Further Explanation

Mixture  

  • A mixture is a substance that is made up of two or more substances that are not chemically combined and in fixed proportions.  
  • A mixture may have several varying physical properties.
  • There are two types of mixture.

Heterogeneous mixtures

  • This is a type of mixture that contain different substances or two or more phases of matter.
  • The components of heterogeneous mixtures are not uniform such that different samples of the mixture are not identical to each other.  
  • Examples of heterogeneous mixtures are; blood, soil, Gravel, etc.

Suspension  

  • It is a type of heterogeneous mixture made of larger particles that are visible and normally settles when the mixture is undisturbed.
  • Examples include, tomato juice, fine sand, etc.

Homogeneous mixtures  

  • These are mixtures with a similar uniform appearance and composition throughout. Examples are, steel, air, salt water, etc.
  • Homogeneous mixtures may either be, a colloid or a solution.

Solutions  

  • Solutions are types of homogeneous mixtures containing two or more substances in a single phase.
  • Solutions contains, a solute which is the substance that dissolves in the other substance, and a solvent which is the substances that dissolves the solute.
  • For example, in a salt solution, water is the solvent and salt is the solute.

Colloid  

  • A colloid is a homogeneous solution that has an intermediate size particles between a suspension and a solution. Examples of colloids are fog and milk.
