Answers
Answer:
mixture
it is a substance which is made up of many other substances
compound
it is an only substance
Compound:
A compound is a substance that can be split into simpler substances by chemical means.
Here instead of water you can also write other compound like carbon dioxide, sugar, Sulphur dioxide, calcium carbonate, etc
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.
