No, sugar is not an element. To be an element, a substance must have all the same type of atom. A common sugar is Glucose, which has three atoms in it: 1 Carbon, 1 Hydrogen and 1 Oxygen in the arrangement C6H12O6 . This means that in one molecule of Glucose, there are 24 atoms. So, as sugar [Glucose] has many different types of atom in it, it's not an element.
