A compound comprises the same proportion of its components, a mixture can be made up of varying amounts.
A compound may have physical and chemical properties which are quite different to those of any of its components. A mixture retains many of the physical and chemical properties of its main ingredient.

Why can physical methods be used to separate mixtures but not compounds?
compounds are bonded at a molecular level. they would hve to be releived of that bond before physical separaion can occur.
What are the three kinds of mixtures?
See the link below; read attentively.
What is the difference between elements compounds and important mixtures?
Elements are atoms that consist of different protons. They are the simplest thing that defines an atom. The only thing that defines them is the number of protons, electrons and neutrons they have, as all protons, electrons and neutrons are identical. (I think) Compounds are elements joined chemically together. They must be in a set ratio (e.g. water must be 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom) They can only be separated chemically (e.g electrolysis). Mixtures are stuff that contain different substances or materials. They are not bonded together chemically. There is no set ratio, unlike compounds. They can be separated by physical methods. (for example, salt in water is a mixture. They can be separated by distillation.)
How do elements and compounds differ?
Elements consist of atoms which all have the same atomic number, chemical compounds consist of 2 or more different elements chemically bonded togetherElements cannot be broken down into anything simpler. Compound are made up of more than one element joined together.
How does the tome of Get Up and Bar the door differ from the tone of the other two ballads?

Why dont compounds differ from mixtures?
Compounds differ from mixtures; the chemical composition is different !
How do mixtures differ from compound?
mixtures differ from compounds because mixtures are made up of random things that have no similarities and compounds don't.
What are two ways in which mixtures differ from compound?
A compound is chemically bonded unlike mixtures and compounds you can't take the elements apart, mixtures you can.

What are two ways that mixtures differ from compuonds?
Compounds are two or more elements combined on a set ratio, and mixtures are not chemically combined, they are two or more substances mixed together
What is the same between compounds and mixtures?
Compounds are chemically mixed. You can't see the ingredients, elements, etc. in compounds. Compounds make a new thing. Compounds can't be separted easily. Compounds can't contain mixtures. Mixtures are not chemically mixed. You can see the ingredients, elements, etc. in the mixture. Mixtures don't create anything new. Mixtures can be separated easliy. Mixtures can contain compounds. Both mixtures and compounds are mixes of things. Both mixtures and compounds contain 2 or more elements, ingredients, etc. Hope I helped!
What substances are compounds?
Mixtures contain two or more compounds.
Are compounds considered mixtures?
Compounds are not mixtures; mixtures are formed from compounds.
What are three different ways that compounds and mixtures differ?
Mixtures have widely variable contents, whereas compounds have fixed contents. In mixtures, each component retains its characteristics, but compounds may act wildly different from their component parts. Attempting to break down compounds requires vast amounts of energy, yet mixtures can be separated rather simply.
What are some ways that compounds differ from mixtures?
A compound has two different elements chemically combined into a new substance that can only be separated by a chemical reaction. A mixture has two different substances mixed together that can be separated by physical means such as distillation or filtration.
Mixtures are blends of what?
Two or more different compounds
