How do compounds differ from mixtures in terms of composition?
Answer:
Compounds are composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together. The compound has different properties to the elements from which it is made and compared to mixtures compounds are difficult to separate.
(e.g sodium and chlorine combine chemically to give sodium chloride)
Mixtures are made up of two or more substances simply combined together without any chemical bonds being formed. Just by stirring or shaking two or more substances together u can make a mixture. Mixtures are easier to separate. (e.g. sand and water is a mixture)
compounds haves fix composition while mixture don't have fix composition
