Solution

The correct option is B

False


In mixtures, elements or compounds just mix together physically like mixing some sand with salt. No new substance is formed. In a mixture, the properties of the constituents are retained.

A compound is a result of the reaction between 2 or more elements in specific proportions. A compound has different physical and chemical properties as compared to the constituent elements.
