Answer:
• Compounds are formed by the chemical constitution of two or more substances, while mixtures are made up of physical constitution of two or more substances.
Explanation:
• In the formation of different compounds chemical reactions are required, while in the formation of mixtures there is no chemical reactions involved rather it is formed by physically mixing two or more substances.
• On the basis of its composition, compounds can be of three types, that is ionic compounds, covalent compounds, and metallic compounds.
• On the basis of its composition, mixtures are of two types, that is homogeneous mixtures and heterogeneous mixtures.
• Compounds are grouped under pure substances while mixtures are grouped under impure substances.
• Since compounds are formed by chemical reactions its proportions are always fixed, while in mixtures the proportions can always vary.
• To separate the constituents of the compounds chemical processes are involved while the separation of mixtures can be done by simple physical processes.
