Today the laws of definite proportions and multiple proportions, applied to chemical compounds, are considered as not genarally valid.
Many mixtures (not all !) have a fixed composition depending on the specific application and recipe.
What is a fixed composition? the answer is a substance.
Substance- matter that has the same fixed compostion
and properties.
Well, I am not a chemist, but I can spell composition. What is meant by "fixed" and whom is composing this nonsensical question?
A composition of an element is only fixed if it doesn't radioactively decay, chemically react, interact with a fundamental particle, and no external energy is introduced into the system. These four things happen quite a bit though and if they don't the element stays the same because it is at the lowest energy state it can obtain.
the composition of the mantle is peridotite
topsoil composition is structure
It is most similar to the composition of the rock basalt.
A pure substance has a fixed and uniform composition.
A fixed composition is not a characteristic of a mixture. The composition of a mixture can vary, unlike the composition of a compound that forms a chemical reaction.
A compound has a fixed composition and is always a homogeneous pure substance.
it is called a fixed composition
Mixtures don't necessarily have fixed composition
No, the composition is variable - excepting of course specific recipes.

No. a mineral is a compound of fixed chemical composition and of fixed crystal structure.
No. a mineral is a compound of fixed chemical composition and of fixed crystal structure.
You think probable to a chemical compound. But today the theory of the fixed composition is not generally valid.
