Question

give 4 main diffrencess between mixture and compound

Answer 1

Answer:

No. Compound are substances which can be formed by chemically combining two or more elements. Mixtures are substances that are formed by physically mixing two or more substances.

Answer 2

Answer and Explanation:

$\blacksquare$ Mixture

$\implies$ Mixtures are physical combination of 2 or more substances

$\implies$ Mixtures made of same substances can have different composition of the substances

$\implies$ Can be either homogenous or heterogenous

$\implies$ Substances retain their own nature in the mixture

$\implies$ No new substances are formed during the formation of mixtures

$\implies$ Property depend on the individual components of the mixture

$\blacksquare$ Compound

$\implies$ Compounds are chemical combination of 2 or more substances

$\implies$ Compounds have a definite or fixed composition of elements

$\implies$ Always homogenous

$\implies$ Elements that form the compound do not retain their nature in the compound

$\implies$ New substances or products are formed during the formation of compounds

$\implies$ Property of the compound is different from that of the elements or components of the compound

[For eg: H₂ gas is a combustible gas

              O₂ gas helps in combustion

but, H₂O formed from reaction of H₂ and O₂ extinguishes fire that is, it is not a promoter of combustion ]
