Elements are pure substances consisting of only one type of atom, meaning all their particles are identical. Compounds are formed when two or more different types of atoms chemically bond together, resulting in particles that are made up of these combined atoms. Mixtures, on the other hand, consist of two or more substances (elements or compounds) that are physically combined, where the individual particles retain their own properties and can be separated by physical means. Thus, the key difference lies in the uniformity and bonding of the particles involved.
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.
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.
In compounds, particles are chemically bonded together to form a new substance with its own unique properties, whereas in mixtures, particles are not chemically bonded and can be easily separated by physical means. Compounds have a fixed ratio of atoms, while mixtures can vary in composition.

Gold, Silver, Oxygen, and Hydrogen are not compounds because they are all elements.Sources- Science book. ^_^P.S- This better have helped!
Examples of particles include electrons, protons, and neutrons. Non-examples of particles include elements, compounds, and mixtures.
No they are not.
Yes, all the mixtures contain compounds or elements.
No. Elements, compounds and mixtures are 3 different terms.
magnesium and oxygen are elements. They are not compounds
Metallic compounds are homogeneous mixtures. They are mixtures of different metal elements. But particles of each metal cannot be seen separately.

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!
When elements combine in changing ratios, they form compounds rather than mixtures. Mixtures are made up of different substances that are not chemically bonded together, while compounds are formed by chemical bonding between elements in specific ratios.
