Example 1 : Element existing in the form of atoms. Example 2 : Element existing in the form of diatomic molecules (eg; Cl2,O2) Compounds. consist of atoms of two or more different elements bound together chemically, can be broken down into a simpler type of matter (elements) by chemical means; but not by physical means.
Compounds have a chemical formula. The chemical formula is made up from the symbols of the elements in the compound. It also indicates the number of atoms of each element in the compound. An example of a very important compound is water. Water is made up of two elements- hydrogen and oxygen. The chemical formula for water is shown.

1. Elements, compounds and mixtures. Target level. These materials are primarily intended for the 11–14 age range, but may also be used as revision materials for the 14–16 age range. Topics. Pure substances and mixtures; elements and compounds. Rationale.
In this chapter, you will learn to (1) define the terms mixture and compound more precisely, (2) distinguish between elements, compounds, and mixtures, (3) describe how elements combine to form compounds, (4) construct systematic names for some chemical compounds, and (5) describe the characteristics of certain kinds of chemical compounds.
Elements are the fundamental materials of chemistry and are characterized by the fact that they cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means. Only 88 occur naturally and only the first 92 are typically used in chemical laboratories.
Elements are the basic building blocks of matter. An element is pure substance that cannot be broken down or changed into another substance. An element is made of one type of atom. Each element is represented by a chemical symbol.
