PURE SUBSTANCE VS MIXTURE:
Pure substance:
-Formed CHEMICALLY.
-CAN'T be broken down by any process
-Elements (e.g. O) and Compounds (e.g. H2O) are pure substances.
Mixture:
-Formed PHYSICALLY.
-CAN be broken down by physical process
-Any substances that are form physically (e.g. Air) are mixtures.
ELEMENTS VS COMPOUNDS:
Elements:
-An element is an substance that can't be broken into two or more simpler substances.
-Element is a small but significant presence of a feeling or abstract quality.

Compounds:
-Made up of two or more types of elements (e.g. water and carbon dioxide) that are
chemically combined in a set ratio.
-Cannot be broken down into two or more simpler substances by physical means, only by chemical means.
-Properties of compounds differ from those of their elements. For example, salt is made up of two elements: chlorine, which is poisonous; and sodium, which
