re !! here is your answer... Hope it helped!! Please mark as the brainliest answer !Answer:Hey there!! to answer your question, let me tell you what a mixture is, and some examples of it. What  is a mixture? ANS. A mixture is a mix of 2 or more different components or substances without any chemical CHANGE or change in the FORM of the molecules. It is basically 2 or more substances mixed together in any ratio and there is no new substance formed. What are some examples of a mixture? Ans. Salt and pepper, water and salt. Notice that in these mixtures, they can still be separated using physical methods , and there wont be a new substance formed when they are mixed together. Explanation:So, following the definition of a mixture, let us answer your question : Which one of the following will result in the formation of a mixture? A) Crushing of a marble tile into small particles B) Breaking of ice cubes into small pieces C) Adding sodium METAL to water wrong D) Adding milk in water.​Ans. Option A) Is wrong as when a marble tile is crushed into small pieces, there is no other substance mixed along with it. So, it cant be called a mixture, since a mixture is a mix of 2 or more substances , whereas this has only one substance in it, thus it cant be called a mixture. Option B) Is wrong as when an ice cube is broken into small pieces, there is no other substance mixed along with it. So, it cant be called a mixture, since a mixture is a mix of 2 or more substances , whereas this has only one substance in it, thus it cant be called a mixture. Option C) Is wrong as when we add sodium metal to water, it results in a chemical change with a new substance formed. The molecules of the 2 substances react chemically to form a new substance . thus, it cant be called a mixture as A mixture is a mix of 2 or more different components or substances without any chemical change or change in the form of the molecules. But , in the above case, there is a change in molecules, thus it is a chemical change and not a physical one. Option D) Is right as when we add milk to water, they still can be separated by a physical method, that is filtration . There is no change in the molecules of the substances and there is no new substance formed, so they have reacted PHYSICALLY, thus it is a mixture as A mixture is a mix of 2 or more different components or substances without any chemical change or change in the form of the molecules. The above case exactly fits this definition, thus it is a mixture. Hope it helped!! Please mark as the brainliest answer !
