Maybe, but she hasn't proved it yet. As another example, somebody may bring a jar of gas to your laboratory, and you test the gas in the jar and you find nitrogen atoms, oxygen atoms, argon atoms, and krypton atoms, and there isn't a single compound in it. The gas in the jar is a MIXTURE of gases . . . a mixture that we call "Air".
