Mixtures
Mixtures, in the realm of chemistry, refer to combinations of two or more substances that are physically intermingled but not chemically bonded. They represent a fundamental aspect of our daily lives, ranging from simple solutions like saltwater to more complex compositions such as air. Understanding mixtures is crucial in various scientific disciplines, including chemistry, biology, and environmental science, as they form the basis of countless natural phenomena and human-made materials. By delving into the properties and behavior of mixtures, scientists gain insights into processes vital for industries like pharmaceuticals, food production, and materials science.
