What is a pure substance?
A pure substance contains only 1 element or 1 compound.
2 of 18
State 1 way a mixture can be formed.
A mixture can be formed by elements.

What does it mean by 'no heat or light is given off/taken in when a mixture is formed'?
It means that no chemical reactions took place when a mixture is formed.
12 of 18
State a difference between a mixture and a compound.
No chemical reactions take place when a mixture is formed while a chemical reaction takes place when a compound is formed.
13 of 18
State a difference between a mixture and a compound.
The constituents of a mixture can be separated from one another by physical means while the constituents (elements) of a compound can only be separated by chemical reactions.
14 of 18
State a difference between a mixture and a compound.
The proportion of the constituents in a mixture can vary while the elements in a compound are always combined in a fixed proportion by mass.
15 of 18
State a difference between a mixture and a compound.
The properties are the same as those of the constituents in a mixture while the properties are different from those of the elements in the compound.
16 of 18
State a difference between a mixture and a compound.
The melting and boiling point of the mixture vary according to the composition while the melting and boiling point of the compound are fixed.
17 of 18
Is air a mixture? Why or why not?
Air is a mixture because no chemical reaction takes place when the gases in the air are mixed. The properties of air are also the same as its constituents elements. Air can be separated into its different components by fractional distillation.
