Questions and Answers
Differentiate between a homogeneous mixture and a heterogeneous mixture.
A homogeneous mixture has even distribution, while a heterogeneous mixture has uneven distribution.
Explain the main difference between a compound and a mixture.
A mixture is two or more substances that are physically combined, and a compound is two or more substances that are chemically combined.

Study Notes
Mixtures vs. Compounds
- Homogeneous mixtures have a uniform composition, while heterogeneous mixtures have distinct, separate components.
- A mixture is a physical combination of two or more substances, while a compound is a chemical combination of two or more substances.
Examples of Mixtures and Compounds
- Table salt is classified as a compound, formed by the chemical combination of sodium and chlorine.
- Milk is a heterogeneous mixture, consisting of different components such as fat and water.
- Lemonade is a homogeneous mixture, where the components are evenly distributed.
- Water and carbon dioxide are both compounds, made of chemically combined elements.
Elements
- Oxygen is considered an element, a fundamental substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances.
Types of Changes
- Physical properties can be observed without altering the substance's chemical identity (e.g., mass, volume, shape).
- Chemical properties require a change in the substance's chemical identity to be observed, such as toxicity, flammability, and combustibility.
- Physical changes include boiling, crumpling, freezing, evaporating, sawing, and crushing, affecting a substance's physical attributes.
- Chemical changes involve alterations that lead to a new substance, evidenced by properties such as light release, temperature changes, odor changes, sudden color changes, gas production, and the formation of solids.
Evidence of Chemical Changes
- Indications that a chemical change has occurred include:
- Release of light.
- Temperature change.
- Change in odor.
- Sudden color change.
- Production of gas.
- Formation of a solid (precipitate).
