In what properties of the constituents are retained?

Solution

Mixtures retain the properties of their constituents because the constituents aren't chemically joined. A substance's properties change when it reacts chemically to form a new substance, but not when it's combined with another substance in a mixture. When a mixture forms there's no chemical reaction involved.
