Respuesta :

We know that the definition of each of the possible answers are:

• Element is the simplest subtance that cannot be broken down by any chemical methods.

,

• Compound is made of two or more elements chemically combined together.

,

• Mixture is made from two or more substances physically combined together. Now, a homogeneous mixture has a uniform composition and appearance while heterogeneous mixture comprises two or more substances that can be distinctly observed.

With all this in mind we have that:

A salad is a heterogeneous mixture.

Iron is an element.

Nitrous oxide is a compound.

Mouthwash is a heterogeneous mixture
