When a compound is formed, energy is given off or absorbed but when a mixture is formed, no energy is given off or absorbed. Mixtures can be created by mechanical means, while the creation of a compound is dependent on a chemical reaction.
The physical and chemical properties of a compound are different from its constituent elements. Its particles are of the same kind and are homogeneous.
The physical properties of a mixture are similar to its constituent elements and its chemical properties are the result of the substances that they are made of. Its particles are of different kinds and may or may not be homogeneous.
An example of a compound is pure water, a combination of hydrogen and oxygen in fixed proportion. Another example is table salt. It is made by combining the elements sodium and chlorine, two elements that can be harmful on their own. When sodium chloride (salt) is dissolved in water to form brine, it becomes a mixture.

Water is a compound formed by oxygen and hydrogen.
Oxygen is a combustible gas and hydrogen is a supporter of combustion but water is used to extinguish fire .
So when two constituents combined the property of the compound formed was completely opposite to that of its constituents.
Hope it helps.
