Question

What is difference between mixture and compound (Write any two points of differences). ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Mixtures are the impure substances, made up of two or more physically mixed substances and not in the fixed ratio. Compounds are the pure form, made up of two or more chemically mixed elements and in a fixed ratio. ... Mixtures do not have meting or boiling point, but compounds have fixed melting and boiling point

Answer 2

Mixture:-

• Mixtures are impure substances, made up of two or more physically mixed substances. They can be homogeneous or heterogeneous by nature.

• The substances which are found in the mixtures are not in fixed quantity, that means their ratio varies.

• The properties of the mixtures also vary (not fixed) as it depends on the type of substances and the quantity by which these are being mixed

• Mixtures do not have a certain formula

• The substances of the mixtures are easy to separate by different physical methods like filtration, chromatography, evaporation.

Compounds:-

• They are the pure form, made up of two or more elements that are chemically mixed. These are generally homogeneous.

• But in the case of compounds, the elements are present in fixed quantity, that means their ratio is fixed.

• . For the particular type of compound, the properties are fixed and do not vary, as the elements present in the compounds are fixed and are in the fixed ratio.

• Compounds have a specific formula, depending on the constituents present

• The elements are not easy to separate and if done than it is by chemical methods.
