A pure solid and a pure liquid are definitely a single phase because they are so united, or homogeneous. This leads to a homogeneous mixture also being a single phase.
The option that cannot be considered a single phase is D. a heterogeneous mixture.

Answer:

d) a heterogeneous mixture

Explanation:

Hello,

In heterogeneous mixtures there are distinguishable constituents, it means that we could have liquids and solids into the same mixture unlike homogeneous mixtures in which the constituents are indistinguishable (they are usually single-phased (of course, a pure solid or a pure liquid are often single-phased).

Best regards.
