Type your answer here... A compound... duh! If it includes the names of more than one element, (in this case oxide=oxygen and Mercury) and it is (obviously) safely enough combine for it to be named, it is a compound. Besides, if "element" means ONE ELEMENT, and the name includes mercury and oxygen, that means that there are TWO ELEMENTS, HELLO!
