ViviA heterogeneous mixture is one where the components are visibly different and can be easily separated using physical methods like filtration or sorting. Examples include a mixture of sand and salt, where the sand particles can be seen and separated from the smaller salt particles.

Is a solute a mixture in which particles can be seen and easily separated?
No, a solute is a substance that is dissolved in a solvent to form a solution. The particles of a solute are too small to be seen individually, and they cannot be easily separated from the solvent by physical means such as filtration.
Why does pepper and water make a suspension?
The pepper particles do not dissolve in water, so they remain suspended throughout the liquid instead of dissolving. This creates a mixture where the particles are not evenly distributed, forming a suspension.
Can heterogeneous mixtures be seen and easily separated?
No, it is not true.
If the solute particles are large enough to be seen and to be filtered the mixture is an?
heterogeneous mixture.
Suspension?
This is the heterogeneous mixture where particles are large enough to be seen with the naked eye.
