What’s on the Elements, Compounds and Mixtures poster
A 3-row table: Type · Made of · Separated by · Example.
The difference is whether the parts are chemically joined.
- Element — one kind of atom — cannot be separated — gold, oxygen
- Compound — atoms chemically bonded — chemical reaction — water, salt
- Mixture — substances just mixed — physical means — air, sea water
Water is a compound — you cannot filter the hydrogen out. Salt water is a mixture — you can evaporate it.

- When should you use the Elements, Compounds and Mixtures poster?
- Ask whether it can be separated, and whether that separation is physical or chemical. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Elements, Compounds and Mixtures belongs on the wall where that science work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
- What other posters go with Elements, Compounds and Mixtures?
- Atoms, Chemical Reactions and How Body Systems Work Together sit alongside Elements, Compounds and Mixtures in the 7th Grade set. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.AtomsChemical ReactionsHow Body Systems Work Together

Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Elements, Compounds and Mixtures loses nothing.Printing guide
