The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Identify the true statement among the following," we will analyze the definitions and characteristics of compounds and mixtures based on the provided information. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition of a Compound**: - A compound is a substance formed by combining two or more chemical elements. - Compounds have a uniform composition, meaning they are homogeneous. 2. **Understand the Definition of a Mixture**: - A mixture is formed by combining two or more different substances (matters). - Mixtures can be separated by physical methods. - Mixtures can be either homogeneous (uniform composition) or heterogeneous (non-uniform composition). 3. **Analyze the Options**: - **Option 1**: Both compounds and mixtures are homogeneous. - This is incorrect because while compounds are homogeneous, mixtures can be heterogeneous as well. - **Option 2**: Both compounds and mixtures are heterogeneous. - This is incorrect because compounds are homogeneous. - **Option 3**: Compounds are homogeneous and mixtures can be homogeneous and heterogeneous. - This is correct. Compounds are always homogeneous, while mixtures can be either. - **Option 4**: (Assuming there is a fourth option) is incorrect based on the definitions provided. 4. **Conclusion**: - The true statement is: "Compounds are homogeneous and mixtures can be homogeneous and heterogeneous." ### Final Answer: The correct statement is: "Compounds are homogeneous and mixtures can be homogeneous and heterogeneous." ---
