Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.82P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:Differences between the main pathway of separation of components of a mixture and the components of a compound should be given.
Concept introduction:Compounds are pure substances that are composed of at least two or more than two elements bound chemically in fixed proportions. They are represented by their chemical compositions. Compounds can be fragmented into its constituents by chemical methods. Examples of compounds are water
Mixtures consist of two or more chemical compounds or elements that are mixed up physically, they are not pure substances. Examples of mixtures are air, milk, honey.
