Answer:

how they are alike: Both compound and mixture are combined in a definite ratio or in any proportion. Both compound and mixture consist of two or more substances/elements. Both compounds and mixtures have physical and chemical properties.

how they are different: The chemical composition of compounds is always fixed. A mixture can have a variable composition of the substances forming it. Mixtures can either be homogeneous or heterogeneous in nature. The constituents of a compound can only be separated by either chemical or electrochemical methods (like extraction).
