Which term describes something that has a uniform structure throughout?

Which term describes something that has a uniform structure throughout?

• A. Homogeneous
• B. Corrosive
• C. Combustible
• D. Reactive substance

Answer: (A)

The idea is to describe something whose composition and properties are the same in every part. A homogeneous substance has that uniform make-up, so any sample from it looks and behaves the same throughout. For example, a sugar solution or pure water has a consistent composition no matter where you sample. The other terms describe how a substance reacts or behaves chemically (whether it can corrode, burn, or react with other materials), not how evenly its parts are arranged. So the term that fits a uniform structure throughout is homogeneous.
