States of Matter

A mixture is defined as an impure substance made up of two or more types of elements (atoms) or compounds or both mechanically mixed in any proportion, and it can be further subdivided into simpler substances by physical (mechanical) means.

Copper sulfate solution is an impure substance made up of two types of compounds (copper sulfate and water) mechanically mixed in any proportion, and it can be further subdivided into simpler substances by physical (mechanical) means since its constituents have not undergone a chemical change. Therefore, it is a mixture.

A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure. As such, it is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, gas, and plasma), and is the only state with a definite volume but no fixed shape.

Fluids don`t have definite shape. They take the shape of the Container

Condensation is the change of water from its gaseous form (water vapor) into liquid water. Condensation generally occurs in the atmosphere when warm air rises, cools and looses its capacity to hold water vapor. As a result, excess water vapor condenses to form cloud droplets.

With change in temperature matter changes its phase

Freezing is a phase transition in which a liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered to its freezing point

Liquefaction, sometimes liquification, refers to any process which either generates a liquid from a solid or a gas, or generates a non-liquid phase which behaves in accordance with fluid dynamics

: Latent heat is energy released or absorbed, by a body or a thermodynamic system, during a constant-temperature process. An example is a state of matter change, meaning a phase transition, such as ice melting or water boiling.

Plutonium is a transuranic radioactive chemical element with symbol Pu

In chemistry, a mixture is a material system made up of two or more different substances which are mixed but are not combined chemically. A mixture refers to the physical combination of two or more substances on which the identities are retained and are mixed in the form of solutions, suspensions, and colloids.

Fact

 factual

A homogeneous mixture is a type of mixture in which the composition is uniform. A heterogeneous mixture is a type of mixture in which the composition can easily be identified since there are two or more phases present. Air is a homogeneous mixture of the gaseous substances nitrogen, oxygen, and smaller amounts of other substances. Salt, sugar, and many other substances dissolve in water to form homogeneous mixture.
