Elements are not mixtures.
An element is composed of only one kind of atom. A compound is composed of two or more different elements. A mixture is just two or more substances mixed together. A classical experiment in school is to take a mixture of two substances, sand and salt; then to decide how to separate the two substances. That is usually done by putting them both into water; the salt dissolves thus allowing the salt to be recovered by boiling the water away. The sand (and any remaining water) are then placed on a filter paper. This lets the water through but not the sand, which might need a little more drying.
