Mixture and Compounds



Hello, people. I'm back again! Today I am going to talk about Mixtures and compounds. There are a lot of people getting confused with mixture and compounds, and I am going to solve the question for that.

Classification of substance
 We have to learn about the classification if you want to know what Mixture and Compound is.

     ★We can classify substance as Pure Substance and Mixture
       Is it made up of one substance?              
       YES; Pure Substance
       NO; Mixture
  • We can classify Pure Substance as Simple Substance and Compound
        Is it made up of a single element?
        YES; Simple Substance
        NO; Compound 
  • We can classify Mixture as Homogeneous Mixture and Non-Uniformed Mixture(Heterogeneous)
        Is it distributed evenly?
        YES; Homogeneous Mixture
        NO; Non-Uniformed Mixture (Heterogeneous)


 Substance
-Pure Substance    -Single Substance
                           -Compounds

-Mixture                -Homogeneous Mixture

                           -Non-Uniformed Mixture (Heterogeneous)



Okay  I hope you understood! Now I will tell you about Mixture and Compounds little more specifically. 


Mixture
The thing that you must remember is that mixture is a substance that is mixed with two or more pure substances.
For example, there are air, vinegar,soda, underground water, sea water, salt water, alloy(solder, 14K gold, 18K gold),etc.
-Can be separated by physical means
-Each substances in a mixture keeps its own properties.

Homogeneous Mixture is mixture that has ingredient substances mixed evenly.
 For example, there are air, vinegar, soda, underground water, seawater,and alloy etc.
 -It has even composition ratio in a mixture.

ex) Air= nitrogen(78%)+oxygen(21%)+argon(0.93%)+carbon dioxide(0.03%) etc.
      Soda = water+sugar+carbon dioxide etc.

Non-Uniformed Mixture (heterogeneous) is mixture that has ingredient substances mixed unevenly.
 For example, there are milk, rock, muddy water,concrete, fruit juice etc.
-It has different composition ration even if it is in a mixture.

ex) Muddy water=water+dirt



Compounds

Pure Substance is a substance that is made up of one type of substance, not the other types.
ex)oxygen, hydrogen, water, salt, pure gold(24K gold), carbon dioxide etc.
Pure substance is divided in two categories Compound and Single Substance.

-Can't be divided in physical mean
-It has even mass ratio of component matter
-Have same melting point, boiling point and density.

Compound is totally different thing even it looks similar with mixture.
Compound is Pure Substances that is made up of two or more elements.

For example of compound, there are water(distilled), ethanol, salt, iron sulfide,carbon dioxide, ammonia, dry-ice etc.

ex) Water=formed with the combination of oxygen and hydrogen.














Single Substance is a substance that is formed with one type of element.
For example, there are oxygen, hydrogen, copper, pure gold, aluminum, iron, graphite, diamond (graphite and diamond is both made up of carbon) etc.

-Each substances keep it's own intrinsic properties. 
-Cannot be divided anymore to other substances.




Done! I am glad you read until the end. or did you just scrolled down? Now did you learned many things about mixture, compound and many other things? I hope you did.I will come back maybe next week again.
