Solution
Similarity: In both the cases, the mixture shows the properties of its constituents and the constituents can be separated by physical methods, such as filtration, evaporation, distillation etc.
Difference: Mixture of sugar and water is a homogeneous mixture and it is considered to be a solution. On the other hand, mixture of sand and sugar is a heterogeneous mixture.

There is a large group of materials P which can be divided into three groups Q, R and S on the basis of their properties. The substances belonging to group Q can be solids, liquids or gases. The solids belonging to group Q are usually electrical insulators. Most of the substances of group R are solids which are good conductors of electricity. The substances belonging to group S are neither insulators like Q nor good conductors like R. The properties of S are intermediate between those of Q and R.
