A chemical combination results in a new molecule which is distinguishable (i.e., separable) from the original constituents. For example, consider adding a solution of carbon dioxide [soda water] to a solution of calcium hydroxide [lime]. You get a white precipitate of calcium carbonate, which is different from either of the original constituents.

For chemical combining, the atoms must exchange or share electrons.

Physical mixing - indivisual atoms retain their properties
Chemical mixing - New property of the combined atoms( no original property retained)
