Solution

The correct option is B

statement 1 and 2 are mixtures and 3 and 4 are compounds.


Elements and compounds mix together in variable ratios to form a mixture of variable composition (it depends on the mixing ratio in which the constituents of the mixture are mixed), whereas elements and compounds combine in fixed ratios to form new compounds with entirely different properties and a fixed composition.
