Here's why:
* Blending: This implies a physical process of combining substances without altering their chemical composition.
* Not chemically combined: This means the substances retain their individual properties and can be separated by physical means.
Types of Mixtures:
* Homogeneous mixtures: The components are evenly distributed throughout the mixture (e.g., saltwater, air).
* Heterogeneous mixtures: The components are not evenly distributed and can be easily distinguished (e.g., sand and water, salad).
