ELEMENTS 1- It contains atoms of the same element like oxygen COMPOUNDS 1- it contains atoms of different element
2-it contains different size like 8 atoms of sulphur 2- it is combined by DEFNET PREPOSION BY MASS
3 - Eg- H2 , 02 , etc. 3- H2O, MgO , etc

Element | Compound |
An element consists of the same kind of atom. | Compounds are formed when two or more elements combine chemically in a fixed proportion. |
The smallest particle of an element is an atom. | The smallest particle of a compound is a molecule. |
All the particles of an element have similar properties. | The properties of compounds may or may not be similar to their constituents. |
Hope this helps!

A?compound?contains atoms of different elements chemically combined together in a fixed ratio.
An?element?is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atom.
Distinguishing Feature-
Compounds contain different elements in a fixed ratio arranged in a defined manner through chemical bonds.
Elements?are distinguished by their atomic number (number of protons in their nucleus).
Ability to Breakdown-
A?compound?can be separated into simpler substances by chemical methods/reactions.
Elements?cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical reactions.
Types-
The list of?compounds?is endless.
There are about 117?elements?that have been observed. Can be classified as metal, non-metal or metalloid.
Representation-
A?compound?is represented using a formula.
An?element?is represented using symbols.
Examples-
compound-?Water (H2O), Sodium chloride (NaCl), Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) etc.
element-?Iron, copper, silver, gold, nickel etc.

Difference Between Element and Compound
Sl. No. | Differentiating Property | Element | Compound |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Definition | Elements are pure substances which are composed of only one type of atom. | Compound are substances which are formed by two or more different types of elements that are united chemically in fixed proportions. |
2 | Total Numbers | There are nearly 118 elements (at present) of which nearly 94 occur naturally on Earth. | Compounds are almost endless. |
3 | Types | Elements are classified as either metals, nonmetals or metalloids. | Compounds are classified according to their bonds which can be ionic, molecular or metallic. |
4 | Examples | Some of the examples of elements are Iron, Copper, Gold, etc. | A few examples of compounds are NAOH, NaCl, etc. |
5 | Representation | Elements are represented by symbols and numbers. For example, Sodium is represented by Na. | Compounds are represented by their chemical formula. For example, salt is represented by the formula NaCl. |
6 | Distinguished By | Elements can be distinguished by their atomic number. | Distinguished by their fixed ratio of different elements (arranged in a defined manner). |
7 | Composition and Property | As only one type of atoms make up an element, all the properties of that atom are represented by its atom. | In case of compounds, the same type of molecules makes up the compound. |
8 | Ability to Breakdown | Elements cannot be broken down by chemical reactions. | Compounds can be easily separated into simpler substances by chemical reactions. |
