A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture of two or more compounds. Examples are: mixtures of sand and water or sand and iron filings, a conglomerate rock, water and oil, a salad, trail mix, and concrete (not cement).

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that composes of components that aren't uniform or they have localized regions that all have different properties. Despite the term appearing to be highly scientific, there are various common substances that are heterogeneous mixtures.

A heterogeneous mixture is simply any mixture that is not uniform in composition – it's a non-uniform mixture of smaller constituent parts. Using various means, the parts in the mixture can be separated from one another.

A mixture is a combination of two or more pure substances in which the original substances retain their chemical properties. In some mixtures, the initial substances cannot be detected after they have been mixed. In a
heterogeneous mixture, the substances do not blend smoothly throughout, and the individual substances that compose the mixture can be detected. Heterogeneous mixtures can typically be separated back into their individual components through chemical or physical means

This article is about states of matter. For other meanings of heterogeneity, homogeneity, and related words, see Homogeneity (disambiguation) and Heterogeneity (disambiguation).
 
Homogeneity and heterogeneity are concepts often used in the sciences and statistics relating to the uniformity in a substance or organism. A material or image that is homogeneous is uniform in composition or character (i.e. color, shape, size, weight, height, distribution, texture, language, income, disease, temperature, radioactivity, architectural design, etc.); one that is heterogeneous is distinctly nonuniform in one of these qualities.
