Matters are everywhere.

There are three types of matter according to the shape; solid, liquid, and gas.

But hey, there is also another classification of matter!

You can categorize matter into ELEMENT, COMPOUND, OR MIXTURE.

Down below are examples of elements, compounds, and mixtures.

Read along!

  22. Wood
  23. Cement
  24. Glue
  25. Fruit juice (Without pulps)
  26. Tea
  27. Chocolate bar
  28. Soda water
  29. Vinegar

Examples of Heterogeneous Mixture

  1. A bowl of cereal and milk
