YES!!!!
Taking Sodium and Chlorine as an example.
Sodium metal is an element. Chlorine gas is an element.
Put them together in a gas jar and they will react to form the compound sodium chloride.
In nature atmospheric nitrogen (an element) will react with atmospheric oxygen (also an element), when a lightning strike discharges, to form nitrogen oxides (compounds).

What is formed when elements join together?
A compound is formed when elements join together.
Are hydrogen and oxygen compounds or elements?
Hydrogen and oxygen are elements.
Are compounds random combinations of elements?
No
What are constituent elements of a compound?
Chemical compounds are formed from chemical elements.
What are compounds that mainly consist of the elements hydrogen and carbon?
These compounds are called "hydrocarbons".
What are compounds and how are they formed?
Compounds are chemical substances that is formed when two or more different types of elements join together.
Are all the substances in the periodic table elements?
Yes! All of the 'substances' are elements. However elements can join together to make compounds.
What type of chemical reaction causes elements and compounds to join together?
a combination reaction
Are there more non-element than elements?
I am not sure what you mean by 'non elements'.ALL matter is made up of elements - there is no such thing as a 'non element'.Elements can however join up to form compounds and the number of compounds that can be formed far exceeds the number of elements that comprise them.
When two compounds react do they only give off only other compounds or elements as well?
both :P the elements and compounds in the original substances will join together to form a new substance, with possible elements left over i.e. oxygen+glucose --> carbon dioxide+water (respiration)
How do elements relate to compounds?
Chemical compounds are formed from chemical elements.
What do you call elements joinned together?
When two elements join together they are called a compound. Water is one of the most common compounds, formed from hydrogen and water.
Combined atoms form what?
Well, they can form molecules. Molecules join together to form elements. Elements join together to form compounds.
What are non-metals in the nitrogen family?
elements and compounds
What are the two type of substances?
Elements and compounds
What is the difference from an element from a compound?
Compounds are made of elements. Elements are the smallest units of the compounds. Elements are bond to make compounds.
What happens when elements join?
Chemical bonds form, creating compounds. In some cases energy is released, in others energy is consumed.
