Question

A homogenous material is defined as being ____________

(a) An element

(b) Any material with uniform composition

(c) Synonymous with “solution”

(d) Any material with non-uniform composition

The question was posed to me by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.

My question is taken from Effect of Maintenance on Yields in section Homogenous Reactions of Bioprocess Engineering

Answer 1

Right answer is (b) Any material with uniform composition

The best I can explain: “Homogeneous material” means one material of uniform composition throughout or a material, consisting of a combination of materials, that cannot be disjointed or separated into different materials by mechanical actions such as unscrewing, cutting, crushing, grinding and abrasive processes.
