    A mixture is when you stir things together but they don't bond.

    Compounds are when things are bound into each other. For instance, water.

    Elements aren't mixtures or compounds of other elements. They're pure.

    So...

    1. Mixture

    2. Mixture

    3. Element

    4. Mixture

    5. Compound

    6. Compound

    7. Mixture

    8. Compound

    9. Compound

    10. Element

    11. Element
