Best Answer

If the substances don't lose their charactoristic properties or chemically combine it is probably a mixture. Example: a Pizza is a mixture, say you have a pizza with mushrooms and cheese. If you dont like the mushrooms you can pull them off without altering the physical properties of the other ingrediants. Even when you bake it there is no chemical change in the cheese or the sauce.
