for separating their components.

  1. homogeneous; dissolving followed by filtration and distillation
  2. homogeneous; decanting
  3. heterogeneous; decanting
  4. homogeneous; distillation
  5. heterogeneous; distillation

Verified Answer :

the mixture would be :
1. Homogeneous; dissolving followed by filtration and distillation
salt dissolve in water and will be the filtrate and chalk will be the residue in the filter paper

hope this helps

Answer:

The correct answer is option 1.

Explanation:

The powdered chalk and the table salt both can make a homogeneous mixture in a water solution that can be separated with the help of two processes; filtration followed by the distillation.

The chalk powder dissolved in a solution of the salt and water can be separated with the help of the filter paper by the process of filtration.

The salt can be separated by the process of the distillation from the water or liquid and it remains as an extract.  

Thus, the correct answer is option 1.
