C and A are both false. Mixtures can contain compounds and elements are known.
B and D are correct. 
D- The composition in different samples of a mixture, such as sugar and water, can vary. It can be more or less concentrated so there is no definite proportion required for a formula. 
B- There is no chemical bonding between the constituents, because there is no direct bonding the composition can vary. So this can apply.
