an element is a substance that cannot be chemicallly converted into simpler substances or a substance in which all of the atoms have the same number of protons and therefore the same chemical characteristics. a compound is a substance that contains two or more elements, the atoms of these elements always combining in the same whole-number ratio. a mixture is a sample of matter that contains two or more pure substances and has variable compostion...meaning it can combine in any manner unlike a compound that can only combine in whole number ratios. a solution is a mixture whose particles are so evenly distributed that the relative concentrations of the components are the same throughout.

∙ 12y agoElements are the things you see on the Periodic Table: an element is a substance made up of only one type of atom. A compound is the result of two or more elements that have been chemically bonded. For example, if you chemically bond aluminum and iodine, you get aluminum iodide. A mixture is the result of when you mix two or more elements, but do not chemically bond them. A solution is the result of when you dissolve a substance in a liquid, usually water.

∙ 7y agoA compound contain elements chemically bonded. A synonym is molecule.
A mixture contain two or more compounds; they can be separated by physical procedures.
An element is formed only from similar atoms, having the same number of protons.

How are elements atoms molecules chemical bonds compounds mixtures and substances related?
Elements and atoms are mainly the same. Molecules are made up of atoms and chemical bonds are bonds that combine the atoms together to make molecules. Compounds are just about the same as molecules only are made up of molecules like how molecules are made of atoms. Substances can relate to anything, and mixtures are many compounds and molecules mixed together.
Is all mixtures are solutions true or false and why?
false all solutions are mixtures but not all mixtures are solutions
Does a pure substance describes elements and compounds but not mixtures or solutions?
"Pure" generally implies that the object has no unwanted material. It can include mixtures and solutions. For example, Ivory soap is advertised as being 99.9% pure meaning it has nothing in it that they didn't intend to put in the soap.
Why dont compounds differ from mixtures?
Compounds differ from mixtures; the chemical composition is different !
What other elements compounds and mixtures are involved in photosynthesis?
There Are No Other Elements or Compounds And Mixtures
What is the difference between heterogeneous mixtures coloiods and solutions?
Compounds are cool with water. Try it!
What are pure substances solutions homogeneous mixtures colloids or compounds?
Compounds and solutions are pure substances
Are all mixtures a solutionare all solution a mixturegive examples?
All solutions are mixtures but not all mixtures are solutions. A solution is a mixture of compounds where molecules of one compound are dissolved in another like salt(the solute) in water(the solvent). Other mixtures might not be solutions though, like sand and gravel, because one does not dissolve in the other
How are heterogeneous mixtures and solutions alike?
Heterogeneous and Homogeneous mixtures are alike because they are both compounds, and both made up of different elements. The main difference is that Heterogeneous mixtures' components are very obvious, rather then Homogeneous solutions' appear to be one substance.
What are the four groups that makeup matter?
Mixtures, elements, compounds, an solutions
How are solutions and heterogenous alike?
Heterogeneous and Homogeneous mixtures are alike because they are both compounds, and both made up of different elements. The main difference is that Heterogeneous mixtures' components are very obvious, rather then Homogeneous solutions' appear to be one substance.
What are pure substances A solutions Bcompounds C homogeneous mixtures D colloids?
compounds
Are compounds considered mixtures?
Compounds are not mixtures; mixtures are formed from compounds.
What are mixtures elements and compounds composed of?
MixtureAnswer:They're more of an ecosystem. A number of independent organisms living together (People, microbes, intestinal flora and fauna, mites in the eyebrows, worms, parasites). Each organism is made of molecules containing various compounds. A lot of the traffic in food and oxygen is done by solutions (mixtures) like blood, bile, insulin, lymphatic fluids and mucous.
Is intravenous liquid a compound?
Liquids given intravenously are solutions in water so they are mixtures not compounds.
How are elements atoms molecules chemical bonds compounds mixtures and substances related?

Compounds are just about the same as molecules only are made up of molecules like how molecules are made of atoms. Substances can relate to anything, and mixtures are many compounds and molecules mixed together.
Why are all mixtures solutions?
All solutions are mixtures, because they involve mixing anyway. However, all mixtures are not solutions, because according to the definition of solution, the microstructure of the solute (Molecules) must be penetrated and undergo the process called solvolysis. As a result, solution must be homogeneous. Mixtures can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous
