Hey mate here is your answer!!
Air is a mixture because of the following reasons:
1.Air can be separated into its constituents such as oxygen, nitrogen etc. by fractional distillation of liquid air.
2.Air shows the properties of all the gases present in it. For example: Air supports combustion because of oxygen present in air.
3 It is composed of various gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, inert gases and so on.Moreover , dust particles and water vapour are also present in the atmosphere because of which air is mixture. ... Simply because air is composed of a mixture of gases.
Compounds contain two or more different elements. Water is a molecule because it contains molecular bonds. Water is also a compoundbecause it is made from more than one kind of element (oxygen and hydrogen). ... It is not a compound because it is made from atoms of only one element - oxygen.

Answer:
Because
Explanation:
i-air is formed by the simple making of different gases while water is formed by the chemical combination of hydrogen and oxygen atoms
ii-air does not have any chemical formula while water has a chemical formula h(2)O
iii-components of air can be separated by physical methods while water cannot be separated by physical method.
