Ayala is making salad dressing. she mixes oil and vinegar in a blender until a smooth consistency is formed. explain whether this is a heterogeneous or a homogeneous mixture and why.

The mixture formed will be heterogeneous mixture.

Explanation: When we mix oil and vinegar and blend it together to form a smooth mixture, the final mixture will still be heterogeneous in nature.

As we know that vinegar is a solution of acetic acid in water, which is polar in nature and oil is non-polar in nature.

When, we mix polar compound with a non-polar one, the resulting mixture may mix for a certain time, but after a time, we will be able to see the two layers in a mixture.

And heterogeneous mixtures are defined as the mixtures in which there is a distinct physical boundary present between the solutions in a mixture.

Hence, the mixture of oil and vinegar is a heterogeneous mixture.
