Homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures mixture is air. In physical chemistry and materials science this refers to substances and mixtures which are in a single phase. This is in contrast to a substance that is heterogeneous. A solution has been a special type of homogeneous mixture. Solutions are homogeneous because the ratio of solute to solvent remains the same throughout the solution even if homogenized with multiple sources, and stable because the solute will not settle out after any period of time, and it cannot be removed by a filter or by centrifuge. This type of mixture is very stable, i.e., its particles do not
Zeotropic mixture is called the dew point. Because the bubble and dew lines of a zeotropic mixture's temperature-composition diagram do not intersect, a zeotropic mixture in its liquid phase has a different fraction of a component than the gas phase of the mixture. On a temperature-composition diagram, after a mixture in its liquid phase is heated to the temperature at the bubble (boiling) curve, the fraction of a component in the mixture changes along an isothermal line connecting the dew curve to the boiling curve as the mixture boils. At any given temperature, the composition of the liquid is the composition at
