compound -
Compound:

Mixture:
A mixture is a impure substance which can be split into two or more pure substances by physical means such as filtration sublimation and distillation.
Difference:
Mixture is a impure substance while compound is a pure substance.
The components can be present in any proportions in mixture but the constituents in a compound must be present in a fixed proportion.
In mixture the components show their individual properties while the constituents of a compound do not show their individual properties.
the components of mixture can be separated by physical means while the constituents of a compound cannot be separated by physical means.
