Air is a mixture.

as per definition, mixture is a combination we get after adding two or more things together in any proportion.

air is a mixture because it contains a number of gases like nitrogen , oxygen, carbon dioxide. it also contains dust particles, small organisms, water vapors etc.

carbon monoxide is not a mixture as it is formed from fixed proportion of carbon and oxygen.

similarly, water is is not a mixture as it is formed from fixed proportion of hydrogen and oxygen.
