Classification is the process of organizing items into categories based on their shared characteristics or properties. In chemistry, matter is classified into elements, compounds, and mixtures. Elements are substances made up of only one type of atom, compounds are substances made up of two or more different atoms chemically bonded together, and mixtures are combinations of different substances that are not chemically bonded.
