Mixtures are easy and fun to make, because they don't need a chemical reaction like compounds do. If you have a bowl filled with red candies and pink candies, you have a mixture. Even your favorite pizza is a mixture! Mixtures are made whenever two or more different things come together-but can also be easily separated. Mixtures can be solids, liquids, or gases. In this book we'll explore each and every kind of mixture, with diagrams and vocabulary for at the elementary-age reader.
