Is Matter Around Us Pure?

Question:

State the differences between compounds and mixtures.

Answer:

Sno. Compounds Mixtures
1.It is made up of two or more elements that are chemically combined. It is made up of two or more pure substances that are mixed physically.
2.A compound has definite melting and boiling points and density.A mixture has no definite melting or boiling points and density.
3.The properties of a compound are entirely different from those of its constituents.A mixture retains the properties of the components.
4.A compound is always homogeneous.A mixture is heterogeneous, and some are homogeneous.
5.The constituents of a compound cannot be separated by physical means.The components of a mixture can be separated by simple physical means,(dissolving, magnetic separation, heating, and filtration)
