It wouldn't be a single substance, it would be a mixture.
Mixtures: can be separated by physical means
Mixtures: can be separated by physical means
Matter is a pure substance if it can only be separated by chemical means, NOT physical means. This could be a compound or an element. The opposite is a mixture which can be separated/broken into smaller parts by physical means.
A pure substance is a substance that cannot be separated by means of physical separation but only by chemical. It is a change in time.
Matter is a pure substance if it can only be separated by chemical means, NOT physical means. This could be a compound or an element. The opposite is a mixture which can be separated/broken into smaller parts by physical means.
The result is an MIXTURE
If a substance can be physically separated into its components, it is a mixture, not a pure substance. A pure substance consists of only one type of particle and cannot be separated into other substances by physical means.

no, it can not be separated by a physical process.
a compound is a substance containing 2 or more different types of elements while a mixture is a substance containing 2 or more different materials. ------------------------------------------------------------------ The components of a compound can not be separated by physical means, the components of a mixture can be separated by physical means.
