Homogeneous system:
Homogeneous system. This system is also called a phase. Here the properties are the samet or the properties vary smoothly without showing any surface of discontinuity. Liquid water in a beaker and a column of dust-free air above the earth’s surface are examples of homogeneouss
Heterogeneous system:
Hiterogeneous system. This is a system which consists of two or more distinct homogeneous regions or phases. There is a sudden change in properties at the phase boundaries. A liquid mixture of benzene and water forms a heterogeneous system made up of two immiscible liquid phases. Watera water vapour taken in a closed container is another example of a heterogeneous system. Systems consisting of only gases and vapours are always homogeneous. With liquids, two phases are common, and with solids any number of different phases are possible.
