or man-made (artificial) materials
Properties depend on composition of
material & uses of the material depend
upon its properties States of matter

Heterogeneous Mixtures
• No uniform composition
• Can visually distinguish components
• Sometimes in different phases
Fe + S
Examples: oil & water
muddy water
sulphur & iron filings

Separation of mixtures
Mixtures can be separated by physical
means i.e. magnetism, boiling points,
solubility etc.
Muddy water
Salty water Fe & S separation

of substance and can’t be separated by
physical means. Compounds & mixtures
