Summary Introduction

To determine:

The categorization of the given bowl of vegetable soup as homogenous or heterogeneous mixture.

Introduction:

A mixture in which the composition of its constituent is uniform and indistinguishable throughout the solution is called homogenous mixture.

A mixture in which the composition of its constituent is not uniform but distinguishable throughout the solution is called heterogeneous mixture.

Explanation of Solution

A mixture in which the composition of its constituent is uniform and indistinguishable throughout the solution is called homogenous mixture.

A mixture in which the composition of its constituent is not uniform but distinguishable throughout the solution is called heterogeneous mixture.

A bowl of vegetable soup is a heterogeneous mixture as the vegetable chunks are not uniformly distributed in the vegetable soup. Every spoon contains different amount of vegetables and other components of the soup.
