A mixture is a combination of two or more substances where each substance retains its own properties. Here’s an example of a mixture using the items you've provided:
**Soil and Ice**: When you mix ice (frozen water) with soil, you create a mixture. The ice can cause some of the soil to become damp as it melts, but the two components remain distinct. The soil retains its properties as a solid, while the ice retains its properties until it melts.
If you were to create a mixture of all four items (ice, soil, iron, and gold), you would have a heterogeneous mixture where you can identify the individual components, such as pieces of iron and gold embedded in damp soil with ice surrounding them. Each material maintains its compositional integrity while being mixed together.
