Definition of Mixtures

Explanation:

Mixtures are the impure substances consisting of one or more elements or compounds. They are prepared/made by physical processes and can only be separated by physical processes. Their composition unlike elements and compounds is uncertain and may vary. The proportion in which they are made is not fixed whereas when we see compounds they have a fixed proportion. Their melting/boiling temperature increases from the constituents as they have impurities dissolved in them. Eg- Air,Muddy water,etc.
