Experiment description
This experiment demonstrates the difference between a mixture and a compound using iron filings and sulphur powder. One sample is heated to form a black compound called iron sulphide, while the other remains an unheated physical mixture. Various tests show that the mixture retains the properties of iron and sulphur, whereas the compound formed after heating has completely new properties.
