In literally every single thing in the universe. Elements are the very building blocks of things. Compounds are things that are made up of more than two elements. If something is made up of two Oxygen molecules, it is not a compound. If something is made up of an Oxygen molecule, and a Carbon molecule, it would be a compound.
