No, not at all. An element is a substance that is composed of only one type of atom, meaning all the atoms have the same number of protons and the same properties. Example: Gold is composed of one type of atom.

A compound is a substance that is composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together. As a result the component elements are not distinct from each other, but instead act as a new substance with its own properties. The elements can be separated by chemical means but not physical. Example: Water is composed of the elements hydrogen and oxygen bonded together.

A mixture contains two or more substances (they can be elements or compounds) that are physically mixed together but not chemically bonded. The components remain distinct from one another and retain their individual properties. Example: Salt water consists of salt dispersed throughout water but not bonded to it. The two remain distinct and can be separated by boiling the water.
