Sugar is a compound. It consists of several different elements depending on the type of sugar.

A compound is formed by a chemical reaction and cannot be separated. You can't separate sugar into other substances physically.

Sugar (sucrose ) is an organic compound not an element.

If sugar is in its solid state, then it would be a compound composed of elements in definite proportions, which is a pure substance, but not an element, and is not a mixture.

If the sugar is dissolved in water, then it is a solute, and water is the solvent, and the result is a solution, which is a homogeneous mixture, but not a pure substance.
