Compounds

• Compounds are pure substances.
• They are madeup of two or more elements combined chemically.
• The constituents of a compound are present in a fixed ratio.
• Compounds have fixed properties. For example, a particular compound will have fixedtemperatures at which it melts and boils.
• A compound can have properties different from its constituents, as a new substance is formed when the constituents are chemically combined.
• Theconstituents of a compound can be separated only by chemical methods.

Mixtures

• Mixtures are impure substances.
• They are made up of two or more substances mixed physically.
• The constituents of amixture are present in varying ratios.
• Mixtures do not have fixed properties. Their properties depend on the nature of their components and the ratios in which they are combined.
• In mixtures, nonew substance is formed. The properties of a mixture are the same as the properties of its constituents.
• The constituents of a mixture can be separated easily by physical methods.
