Mixture. A compound is a single substance consisting of atoms bound together (for a very simple definition): water (H2O), Ammonia, etc. A mixture is a combination of coumpounds/elements that are physically, not chemicall combined. When you dissolve sugar in water, you have a sugar-water mixture, not a compound since you do not obtain a single substance "sugar-water" with a unique chemical formula.
