Nitrogen is an element because it cannot be broken down into a simpler substance. Nitrogen gas, consisting of two nitrogen atoms, is also considered to be an element because it consists of only one element, and in order for a substance to be a compound it most contain two or more elements in a fixed ratio or proportion.
