Properties of compounds are different from those of their constituent elements.

A compound can be broken down into its elements.

Breakdown occurs only by a chemical change.

Mixtures

Groups of two or more elements and/or compounds that are physically intermingled.

Components of a mixture can vary in their mass ratios.

At the atomic scale a mixture is merely a group of the units.
