The different substances are not chemically joined together. Each substance in the mixture keeps its own properties. The compound has properties different from the elements it contains. Each substance is easily separated from the mixture.

Compounds have fixed properties. i.e compound will have fixed temperatures at which it melts and boils. where as Mixtures do not have fixed properties. depend on the nature of their components and the ratios in which they are combined.

Differentiate between maps and photographs?
Maps are dynamic in nature - for example when you zoom in on a map, the quality remains the same and added details are visible. In a photograph the content remains the same. Zooming in just zooms in on the same content, amplifying it.
