Correct Answer:
B. Option A (Separation) is correct
Explanation:
Mixtures can be distinguished from compounds by their composition, as they consist of two or more substances that are physically blended in varying proportions rather than being chemically bonded in fixed ratios. Unlike compounds, which possess unique properties distinct from their constituent elements, mixtures retain the individual chemical characteristics of their components. Additionally, the parts of a mixture can be separated through physical processes, whereas breaking down a compound requires chemical reactions.
