A Correct answer
Explanation

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.

The components retain their individual properties in:

  1. Solutions

  2. Mixtures

  3. Compounds

  4. Solvents

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

1) Solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances.
2)Compound a substance formed by chemical union of two or more elements or ingredients in definite proportion by weight
3) 
solvent is a substance that dissolves a solute (a chemically different liquid, solid or gas), resulting in a solution.

Hence only mixtures are the one in which the individual properties of the components are retained
