This is a very broad question since there are many different kinds of mixtures, and many different ways to form mixtures and to separate mixtures. In general, if you add two or more liquids (gin and vermouth) to a single container and stir, they will mix, although there are some which don't mix and instead form layers (oil and water). Separating is usually harder than mixing, because with mixing, entropy is on your side, and with separating, you are fighting entropy. Systems tend to be come more disorderly, and hence mixed. However, many techniques exist. Distillation is a process by which you boil away a substance that has a lower boiling point than some other substance with which it is mixed.

A mixture is formed by a physical change which

is a concept introduced to contrast with the concept of chemical change. A physical change is any change not involving a change in the substance's chemical identity. Matter undergoes chemical change when the composition of the substances changes: one or more substances combine or break up (as in a relationship) to form new substances. Physical changes occur when objects undergo a change that does not change their chemical nature. A physical change involves a change in physical properties. Physical properties can be observed without changing the composition of matter. Examples of physical properties include: texture, shape, size, color, volume, mass, weight, and density

mixtures can be formed by physically putting two or more substances together.

Mixtures can be formed between solids and liquids, solids and solids, liquids and liquids, solids and gas, liquids and gas, gas and gas

A mixture is when you literally put a liquid with a gas/liquid/solid. A mixture is when there is no chemical bonding.
