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.
compounds are bonded at a molecular level. they would hve to be releived of that bond before physical separaion can occur.
See the link below; read attentively.
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.)

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.
mixtures differ from compounds because mixtures are made up of random things that have no similarities and compounds don't.
A compound is chemically bonded unlike mixtures and compounds you can't take the elements apart, mixtures you can.
A compound is chemically bonded unlike mixtures and compounds you can't take the elements apart, mixtures you can.
Compounds differ from mixtures because compounds have a fixed chemical composition with elements chemically bonded in a specific ratio, while mixtures can vary in composition with no fixed ratio. Compounds have specific properties different from their constituent elements, while mixtures retain the properties of their components.
Mixtures are composed of two or more substances that are physically combined and can be separated by physical means, while compounds are composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together and cannot be easily separated. Mixtures can have varying compositions and properties throughout, while compounds have a fixed composition and consistent properties.
Mixtures contain two or more compounds.
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!
Compounds are not mixtures; mixtures are formed from compounds.
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.
Mixtures consist of two or more substances that are physically combined, allowing each component to retain its individual properties, while compounds are formed when substances chemically bond, resulting in new properties. Additionally, mixtures can be separated through physical means, such as filtration or distillation, whereas compounds require chemical reactions to separate into their constituent elements.
Two or more different compounds
what are the similarities of mixtures and compounds?
