You misunderstand!!!! a compound is broken down into its elemental atoms.
Elements and compounds (pure substances) cannot be broken down by physical changes.
No compound forms phosphorus. Phosphorus is an element in its own right, and found in the Periodic Table. Phosphorus is a constituent element in such compounds as phosphorus oxide, phosphoric acid.
Compounds cannot be broken down physically but can be broken down chemically.
Is a pure substance such as an element. Remember elements can not be broken down further by chemical or physical processes.

compounds CAN be decomposed elements CANTThe answer would be Mercury because it is an element and can't be broken down by chemical means. but methane, ethanol and ammonia can be broken down by physical means because they are compounds.

Elements can be broken down into smaller pieces: a compounds smallest particle is a molecule
The simplest substance that you can obtain by ordinary means is an element.An element is a substance than cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substances by chemical means.
A molecule can be broken apart into its constituent Atoms.
Elements and compounds are related in sense that elements bond together chemically to make compounds. A compound can be broken down into pure elements. Example. Water (H20), Is Hydrogen (pure element) and Oxygen (also pure element) bonded together to form a compound (H20). However, while a compound can be broken down into its simple elements, an element cannot be broken down. It is said that an element is the purest whole form. --- Some common substances include both elements (pure elements) and compounds. Air, for example, contains elements such as nitrogen and oxygen, and also compounds such as carbon dioxide (CO2), which is made from carbon and oxygen.
Atoms of the elements are the simplest particles of compounds. The definition of an element is a substance that cannot be broken down into a simpler substance or interconverted.
Compounds cannot be broken down physically but can be broken down chemically.

he used the amount of atoms in each element and compound.
