Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is (a) Mixture.

Explanation:

• When two or more substances are mixed with a random ratio and no chemical reaction occurs, it is called a mixture. A mixture can easily be separated.
• An example of a mixture is- an unknown amount of sugar added to a jar of salt.
• The ratio of a substance is not fixed in a mixture.
• A compound has a fixed ratio of different atoms or molecules that undergo a chemical reaction.
• An example of a compound is- 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen in water, $H_{2}O$.
