Javier Gallagher · Answer 1

That sample of smoke is best described as a mixture and heterogeneous mixture.

It is a mixture because it is formed by different elements, compounds and substance, and so its composition is not constant: one sample of smoke may have different composition that other sample of smoke.

It is heterogeneous because the components may be differentiated with physical methods.
