Question

Characteristics of mixtures

Answer 1

Answer:

mixture is the blending of two or more dissimilar substances. A major characteristic of mixtures is that the materials do not chemically combine. Mixtures can be divided into those that are evenly distributed (homogeneous) and those that aren't (heterogeneous).

Answer 2

Explanation:

A mixture results from the combination of two or more elements or compounds or both that do not react chemically.

Characteristics of mixture are:

• Each compound of a mixture retains its chemical identity and hence its own properties.

• Compound of a mixture may vary while that of its components is fixed.

• It does not have definite melting or boiling points.

• Mixtures can be separated into these components by using physical methods like decantation, distillation, evaporation, crystallization, sublimation and filtration.
