The short answer is 'nothing'. An element is a pure substance which cannot be made any simpler by chemical means.
However, if we go beyond chemistry into nuclear physics, then heavier atoms split apart in the process of radioactivity, or can be made to split by neutron bombardment. For instance, if a uranium 235 atom is hit by a neutron, one way it can split produces barium and krypton.
