Question

Which of the following is NOT a difference between a compound and a mixture?

Answer 1

Answer:

2 Mixtures are homogeneous while compounds are heterogeneous.

Explanation:

Mixtures are often described in chemistry as impure substances. They have the following properties:

• Their composition is indefinite and they contain two or more elements or compounds in any proportion by mass.
• The constituent of mixtures can be seperated into their components.
• They retain their identities i.e physical properties.
• Mixtures are heterogenous and can also be homogeneous. Homogeneous mixtures have their components in just a single phase. Heterogenous mixtures have their components in more than just a single phase.
