Overview
In our daily life, we come across many substances. Some of them are pure, while most are mixtures. A pure substance is made up of only one kind of particle, like an element or a compound. But mixtures contain two or more substances mixed together without any chemical change. These mixtures can be se
Key Concepts
Pure substances are either elements (like
Pure substances are either elements (like gold) or compounds (like sugar). They have fixed properties and a uniform composition. Mixtures are combinat
Homogeneous mixtures have uniform composition throughout
Homogeneous mixtures have uniform composition throughout, like salt dissolved in water. Heterogeneous mixtures have visible different parts, like sand
Different methods are used to separate
Different methods are used to separate mixtures based on physical properties. For example, hand-picking removes stones from rice, filtration separates
Separation depends on differences in properties
Separation depends on differences in properties like size, density, solubility, magnetic nature, or boiling point. For example, magnetic separation us
