Answers
Mixtures are a combination of different things in which the component elements are individually distinct while compounds are the combination of different elements where the component element are indistinct. Compounds have different physical and chemical properties while mixtures dont have.
Answer:
Compounds
• Made from elements chemically bonded together.
• The properties of a compound are entirely different from its constituents.
• It has fixed melting and boiling point.
• Composition of a compound is fixed. It has definite formula.
♡ Example:- Water
Mixtures
• It consists of two or more elements or compound not chemically combined together.
• It shows properties of it's constituents.
• It doesn't have fixed melting and boiling point.
• Composition of a mixture is variable.
♡ Example:- Air, salt solution.
