• Impure materials consist of two or more

elements or compounds.

• Mixtures may be heterogeneous or 

homogeneous.

amount of oxygen dissolved in warm tropical waters?  A. Greater than 

B. About equal 

C. Less than

D. It depends

Explanation:

The solubility of oxygen in water decreases with increasing

temperature. As a consequence, cold polar oceans tend to be

more fertile than warmer tropical waters.
