An element is a substance that consists of the same type of atom. For example, oxygen(O2) is an element since it contains only oxygen atoms.
It is also not a compound as compounds consist of two or more elements which have been chemically bonded in a fixed ratio.
Salt water is not an element, it is a mixture of two compounds i.e. salt (NaCl) and water (H2O) aalso, the ratio of salt to water can vary in the mixture it doe snot always occur in a fixed proportion.
