To be a mixture, the substances comprising the mixture must be capable of being physically separated out, rather than chemically combined. Some examples of mixtures are:
Air
Fog
Cinnamon sugar
Bronze and other metal alloys
Milk
Saltwater is also an example of a mixture, and is easily separated by evaporation.

Oxygen itself is not an example of a mixture, but rather an element. However, air, which is a mixture of gases including oxygen, can be considered an example of a mixture.
An example of a homogeneous mixture is saltwater, where the salt is completely dissolved in the water to form a uniform solution.
Hydrogen gas is not an example of a mixture as it consists of only hydrogen molecules. It is a pure substance.
A salad is an example of a mixture. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A mixture is a physical combination of two or more substances;that is, the substances are mixed without any chemical changes. Mixtures can be either homogeneous or heterogeneous. In a homogeneous mixture, the composition is uniform. Sugar in water is a homogeneous mixture. In a heterogeneous mixture, the components can be more easily identified as there exists two or more phases. An example of a heterogeneous mixture is a salad, or a mixture of sand and iron fillings.
A solution is an example of a mixture in which the particles cannot be seen individually. The solute particles are evenly distributed and dispersed throughout the solvent, resulting in a homogeneous mixture.
