Difference Between Mixtures and Compounds
July 4, 2018 By Rachna C Leave a Comment

The mixture contains two or more substances mixed, but neither chemically as well as not in inexact quantity while compound includes two or more elements combined chemically and in a fixed ratio. For instance, Seawater, Crude oil, Mineral oils, Alloys (Brass, Bronze), etc., are some of the mixtures, Water (H2O), Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2), Sodium Chloride (NaCl), Baking Soda (NaHCO3), etc. are the name of some compounds.
As per the classical physics theory, anything that occupies space has mass and volume is known as the matter. Even matter can be classified into two classes, mixtures, and the pure substances. Pure substances are made up of elements and compounds.
Elements are the simple substance and further cant be broken into more simpler forms. It contains only one type atom, but compound has two or more different atoms or elements, on the other hand, mixtures contain different substances.
On the way of highlighting the differences between mixtures and compounds in this content, we will be giving a brief description of them.

BASIS FOR COMPARISONMIXTURESCOMPOUNDSMeaning
Mixtures are the impure substances, made up of two or more physically mixed substances. They can be homogeneous or heterogeneous by nature.Compounds are the pure form, made up of two or more chemically mixed elements. These are generally homogeneous.Composition
The substances which are found in the mixtures are not in fixed quantity, that means their ratio varies.But in the case of compounds, the elements are present in fixed quantity, that means their ratio is fixed.Properties
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.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.FormulaMixtures do not have a certain formula.
Compounds have a specific formula, depending on the constituents present.Separation
The substances of the mixtures are easy to separate by different physical methods like filtration, chromatography, evaporation.
The elements are not easy to separate and if done than it is by chemical methods.SubstancesNo new substances are formed from the mixtures, due to the unchangeable properties of its constituents.
There is always formation of the new substances, due to the mixing of the chemical properties of the different constituents.
Melting/Boiling point
Mixtures do not have fixed melting or boiling point.
The compound once formed, have fixed melting and boiling point.Heat change
There is no heat change, or involvement of energy is observed when mixtures are made.There is a heat change, and energy is used or released during the formation of the compounds, as it is a chemical reaction.Examples
Alloys like brass, bismuth, chromium, oceanic water (salt and water), mixtures of gases, etc.Compounds like Baking soda, Methane, Salt, etc

because the mixtures are the combination of two compounds which are present in their actual physical form but are compounds are formed by an element composition of it which is totally different and smaller in size as compared to the compounds
