Elements are pretty much defined by the number of protons in the nucleus. This number (the atomic number) defines the element. All the different elements have different numbers of protons in their nucleus.
How can the number of elements be identified within a compound?
Count the different chemical symbols in a compound's chemical formula to identify the number of elements. For instance, in the formula for sucrose (table sugar) C12H22O11 there are three elements -- C, H, and O. These represent carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
