Homogeneous mixtures contain a relatively consistent mixing of their compounds. Examples of Homogenous mixtures include:
- A solution of sugar in water - this is a solid in liquid solution. (Sugar is the solute and water is the solvent.)
- Carbonated drinks like soda or root beer -. these are gas in liquid solutions. (They contain carbon dioxide gas as the solute and water as solvent.)
- Air, which is a mixture of gas in Earth's atmosphere. Air is a homogenous mixture of a number of gases. Its two main constituents are oxygen (about 21%) and nitrogen (about 78%), with other gases present in smaller quantities.
Vinegar is also a homogeneous mixture of acetic acid in water.
