Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The gas in the scuba tank is a homogeneous mixture because it contains multiple gases that are evenly distributed throughout the tank. It is not a compound because compounds are made up of two or more elements chemically combined in a fixed ratio, and it is not an element because it contains multiple different types of atoms. It is also not a heterogeneous mixture because the gases are evenly distributed throughout the tank.
