They cannot be broken down into simpler entities by
chemical or physical methods.
They have a fixed composition.
Example: Diamond, carbon dioxide.
Mixtures
Mixtures are formed by just mixing two or more pure
substances (components) such that each substance
retains its own chemical identity.
Types of mixtures
Types:
1. Homogeneous mixture
A mixture which has a uniform composition throughout is
called a homogeneous mixture or solution.
Examples: sugar in water, salt in water.
Heterogeneous mixture
A mixture which contains physically distinct parts and has a
non-uniform composition is called a heterogeneous mixture.
Examples: Mixture of salt and iron filings, sand and sugar.
