Ice, iron, calcium oxide and mercury are pure substances since they contain particles of only one kind of matter. In contrast, milk, hydroelectric acid (hydrogen chloride gas dissolved in water), brick and air cannot be called pure substances because they consist of particles of more than one kind of matter.
