Pure Substance: A material made of only one type of particle with fixed composition and properties. It maintains consistent characteristics throughout.
Mixture: A combination of two or more substances where each retains its own properties. The components are physically combined, not chemically bonded.
Homogeneous Mixture: A mixture with uniform composition and appearance throughout. It appears the same in every part and is also called a solution.
Heterogeneous Mixture: A mixture where the components are visibly distinct and not uniform, with different parts or phases that can be seen separately.
