State three reasons why you think air is a mixture and water is a compound.
Air is a mixture because:
- It contains two or more pure substances.
- Air can be separated into simpler substances by physical processes.
- The composition of air is not fixed.
Water is a compound because:
- Water cannot be separated into its constituents i.e., hydrogen and oxygen by any physical methods.
- Properties of water are entirely different from those of its constituents.
- The composition of water is fixed.
- Its constituents are present in a fixed proportion by mass. Water has a definite formula (H2O).
