i know this is math but no one is in chem...PLEASE HELP WILL MEDAL AND FAN!!! Pure substances and mixtures are different because mixtures: always have exactly the same composition have exact melting points retain the properties of the constituents in the mixture cannot be separated into their components by physical means
i dont know anyone in chem :(
pure substances contain only one particular substance hence pure, like pure water. a mixture is a composition of different substances.
The last one
but first let me ask you would pure substances and mixtures have the same melting point?
This is the definition of mixture: Mixtures are physically combined structures that can be separated into their original components
no? @Photon336
@rhondasommer yes. the best answer would be the last one but here's why. we can separate a pure mixture if it's a compound but we can't separate a pure substance by physical means such as separation techniques. we need somehow either A break the bonds between the atoms to do that. A mixture we can separate it by physical means. think about say sand and water we could separate that by physical means.
thank you!
