The video tutorial by Mr. Theal covers the topic of pure substances, defining them as substances composed of only one type of atom or particle with unchanging chemical and physical properties. It explains the two types of pure substances: elements and compounds. Elements like gold and carbon are made of one type of atom, while compounds like water and sodium chloride consist of one type of particle. The video concludes with an introduction to mixtures, using muddy water as an example, to illustrate substances made of more than one type of particle.
