  3. Separation of Mixtures
  4. Saturated vs Unsaturated Solutions
  5. Qualitative and Quantitative Statements

📖 1. Mixtures vs Pure Substances

🔑 Key Concepts & Definitions

Pure Substance: A material made of only one type of particle with fixed composition and properties.
Mixture: A combination of two or more substances where each retains its own properties.
Homogeneous Mixture: A mixture with uniform composition throughout, also called a solution.
Heterogeneous Mixture: A mixture where the components are visibly distinct and not uniform.

📝 Essential Points

Pure substances have constant melting and boiling points, which means they melt or boil at specific temperatures. In contrast, mixtures do not have fixed melting or boiling points because their composition can vary, leading to a range of temperatures where phase changes occur. Mixtures can be separated into their individual components by physical means, such as filtration or evaporation, whereas pure substances cannot be separated by physical methods due to their uniform composition. Homogeneous mixtures appear uniform throughout, giving the impression of a single substance, while heterogeneous mixtures have visibly different parts, making the different components distinguishable.
