Pure Substances and Mixtures Explained!

If you’re diving into the world of substances and mixtures in your science classes, these handy posters can help. Designed by the science teachers of Teach Starter, each printable PDF poster contains a definition of the concept, plus examples of each types.

For example, the pure substance poster offers the following explanation:

What Are Pure Substances?

Pure substances contain only one substance, with no others mixed in. They cannot be separated by physical means. Pure substances are made up of only one type of particle (e.g. an element or compound).

Some examples of pure substances include:

  • water
  • oxygen
  • carbon dioxide
  • gold
  • iron

The second poster in this classroom poster pack follows the same format. It covers the definition of mixtures, plus examples as well to help your students as they learn to differentiate between the two types! The printable mixtures poster content includes:

What Are Mixtures?

Mixtures are impure substances, made up of two or more substances mixed together. They can be separated by physical means. Mixtures are made up of substances that are not chemically joined.

Some examples of mixtures include:

  • coffee
  • salty water
  • smog
  • concrete
  • cake
