The composition of a mixture can vary unlike a compound explain why?

Compounds are made by combining two elements to an exact percentage, to change one thing would revert it to its original elements. Mixtures are combinations of two elements that do not depend on this as a mixture is not chemically bound. Jay Sanga

What are two ways in which mixtures differ from compounds?

The ingredients in a mixture are not in any fixed proportion to each other; they are in fixed proportions in a compound.The individual components in a mixture keep their own characteristics but the components of a compound have different characteristics than those of the individual parts.The components of a mixture are unchanged from their original states and can be separated by physically means. The components of a compound are chemically and physically altered from their original states and cannot be separated from the compound by physical means.A mixture is prepared by physical means and can be separated by physical means, while a compound is prepared chemically and may (generally) disitegrate chemically, although not necessarily to original componentsA compound has single boyling, freezing points while a mixture may havesome, or rangeWhich what?

make a cake and find outor the real answer:COMPOUND1. It is a pure substance.2. It can not be separated by physical method.3. Element loose their properties in a compound.4. Its composition is fixed through out its mass.5. It has fixed melting point.MIXTURE1. It is an impure substance.2. It can be separate by physical method.3. Substances forming mixture retain their properties.4. It has no fixed composition.5. It has no sharp melting point.This guiy is a liar!


Why does a mixture not have a chemical formula?

I'm not really sure, but my guess is because they have a variable composition, as apposed to compound or elements which have fixed compositions. Hope I helped! :D
