What is the overall definition that includes mixtures compounds and elements?

The overall definition that includes mixtures, compounds, and elements is matter. Matter refers to anything that has mass and takes up space. Mixtures are combinations of different substances that can be physically separated, compounds are substances composed of two or more elements chemically bonded, and elements are pure substances composed of only one type of atom.


What do you find least of in nature elements compounds or mixtures?

Pure elements are found least in nature compared to compounds and mixtures. Most elements exist bonded to other elements to form compounds or mixed with other substances to form mixtures in nature. Pure elements are less common due to their tendency to react and combine with other elements.


Why are elements and compounds are pure substances and homogeneous mixture are not?

Well, elements and compounds are pure substances. This is because the atoms in an elements are of one type only. Thus making it pure. But in a compound, the ratio of the masses of the combining elements or compounds are fixed. For example, the ratio for hydrogen and oxygen to combine together to form water is 1:8. Therefore the compound is also a pure substance. But homogenous mixtures are not pure substances as the components can be mixed in any ratio. We can make brine solution by mixing any amount of salt and water. There is no fixed ratio. So homogenous mixtures are not pure.


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.

What is a pure substance that can be broken down into smaller substances called?

whyMatter can be broken down into Pure Substances and Mixtures. Mixtures can't be broken down by anything, however Pure Substances break down to Elements and Compounds.The mixtures whether it is homogenous or heterogoneous can NOT be broken down and be observed because it is a chemical change not a physical change


Matter is Classified as mixtures and?

Matter is classified as mixtures and substances. Mixtures are composed of two or more different substances that are physically combined, while substances are pure forms of matter that cannot be separated by physical means. Substances are further divided into elements and compounds.

Are most substances around us pure substances ao mixture?

Most substances around us are mixtures, rather than pure substances. Mixtures are composed of two or more substances that are physically combined and can be separated by physical means, while pure substances are made up of only one type of particle. Examples of mixtures include air, sea water, and soil.


Are helium and gold examples of pure substances or mixtures?

They are actually elements so that is pure substances. Mixtures are more than one type of element that are in the same space but not touching. Compounds are like mixtures but they are touching.
