Elements are composed of atoms and compounds are composed of?
Elements are atoms, atoms are elements. Elements are not larger objects made up of smaller things (atoms). Elements are specific species' atoms, which have a specific atomic mass which gives rise to the characteristics of the element. Compounds are composed of elements.
