C

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In a compound, the different elements react with each other and form strong bonds that require significant energy to break apart. The elements don’t retain their individual properties, nor does the compound necessarily behave like those elements.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: When elements combine to form compounds, their individual properties are lost. In comparison, elements retain some (or many) of their property when they are mixed to form a mixture.

Detailed explanation-3: -When atoms of different kinds combine to form a compound, a new substance is created. New compounds do not have the same physical or chemical traits of the original elements. They have a new life of their own. Compounds are written with formulas showing which elements from the periodic table are combined.
