Anything that has a component that precipitates. That is assuming you're referring to an inhomogeneous solution. Generally, inhomogeneous refers to something that is not the same throughout. Examples are a mixture of sand and water, oil and water, hexane and water, etc.

Inhomogeneous uptake in the osseous structure refers to uneven distribution of a radioactive tracer in the bones during a nuclear medicine bone scan. This may indicate areas of abnormal bone metabolism, such as fractures, infections, tumors, or bone remodeling. Further evaluation is typically needed to determine the underlying cause of the inhomogeneous uptake.
It is one which has a function that does not contain the dependent variable. For example, (dy/dx) + y = f(x) is inhomogeneous but (dy/dx) + y = 0 is not. ( f(x) is a function of the independent variable)
