4. When water is heated it turns to gas and when it cools it condenses back to its liquid state. When water is at its freezing point (0 Celsius) it freezes to solid water.

5. A heterogenous mixture is not uniform or the same throughout. Homogenous mixtures and uniform throughout.

6. You need to know the density of water and gasoline to be able to predict which liquid will be on top.

9)
