Atoms make up all matter. An element has atoms that are all the same. Compounds are made of different kinds of atoms combined chemically in exact whole number ratios.

Elements combined in specific ratios form compounds.
A mixture consists of two or more components that are mixed, but not chemically combined, and can exist in various ratios. A pure substance is an element or a compound, having a definite composition.
A mixture is matter that can vary in composition, consisting of two or more substances that are not chemically combined. Mixtures can have varying ratios of components and can be separated by physical means. Examples include saltwater and air.
Antoine Lavoisier defined an element as a substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means. He proposed that elements are the basic building blocks of matter and that they combine in fixed ratios to form compounds.
Not all matter is classified as either a substance or a compound. Matter can also exist in other forms, such as mixtures or elements. Substances are pure forms of matter that have a fixed composition, while compounds are made of two or more elements chemically combined in fixed ratios.
In general, there is no maximum or minimum limit to the number of elements that can be combined in a substance. Substances can contain a single element (e.g., pure gold) or multiple elements combined in various ratios (e.g., water, which is made up of hydrogen and oxygen). The properties of a substance are determined by the types and proportions of elements present.
In this mode different compounds are obtained.
Sawdust is a mixture because it is composed of different elements and compounds, such as cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose. Mixtures can be separated into their individual components through physical means, such as filtering or distillation, without changing the properties of the substances. Elements and compounds, on the other hand, combine in fixed ratios and cannot be separated into simpler substances by physical means.
