A pure substance is a substance that consists solely of the same atoms/molecules.

So a volume of water that contains only H2O is a pure substance. A block of iron that contains only Fe atoms is pure substance. A pure substance can be composed of atoms or molecules as I said before BUT they have to be exactly the same.
