Lemonade consists of several substances that not chemically combined so lemonade is classified as a?

Here's why:

* Mixture: A combination of two or more substances where each substance retains its own chemical properties. The substances in a mixture can be easily separated by physical means.

* Solution: A special type of mixture where one substance (solute) is dissolved evenly throughout another substance (solvent). Lemonade can be considered a solution because the sugar dissolves in the water.

* Compound: A substance formed when two or more elements chemically combine in a fixed ratio. The resulting compound has properties different from the original elements.

In lemonade, the substances like water, sugar, lemon juice, and sometimes other flavors, are not chemically bonded. They can be separated by physical means like filtration or evaporation.
