The element is IRON.
Steel is an ALLOY, that is a MIXTURE of iron and carbon.
The percentage of carbon present ranges from 0.1 % to 2% depending on the nature of the steel required.
Steel can also be alloyed to other elements to give steel various other characteristics. e.g. Stainless Steel (heat resistant to marking) by adding chromium and nuckel.
No elements if formed when carbon is added. When carbon , or any other element/metal is added , it is a mixture , known as an ALLOY. For various steels, the initial element is IRON, when carbon is added to form an alloy known as STEEL.

Iron is the element that, when combined with carbon, makes steel. Carbon content in steel can range from 0.2% to 2.1%, influencing the properties of the resulting steel alloy.
No, steel is a combination of Carbon and Iron. When referring to steel as "carbon steel" usually means the particular sample contains more carbon. This makes the steel harder but less flexible making it more liable to fracture.
It is neither an element not a compound. Steel is an alloy. An alloy is a mixture of a metal and another element. In the case of steel, it is principally iron (an element), with about 0.2% to 2,0% carbon ( an element), mixed in. Other elements can be mixed in , e.g. chromium to form Stainless Steel, or Tungsten to form hard wearing steel.
Iron (Fe) is the main component of steel. Steel is formed when iron is mixed with carbon or other elements.
No elements if formed when carbon is added. When carbon , or any other element/metal is added , it is a mixture , known as an ALLOY. For various steels, the initial element is IRON, when carbon is added to form an alloy known as STEEL.
A non element. Steel is formed from Iron and carbon.

Iron is the pure element, mild steel, or any steel is iron with a little bit of carbon added. The iron becomes mild steel, steel or any other type of steel depending on how much carbon is added to the iron.
Iron is the element that, when combined with carbon, makes steel. Carbon content in steel can range from 0.2% to 2.1%, influencing the properties of the resulting steel alloy.
Stainless steel is not an element, but an alloy formed by the combining of carbon, iron, manganese, chromium, vanadium, tungsten, and other various elements.
Carbon is the main hardening element in steel. However, increasing the hardness decreases the ductility. Strength in this case is relative.
Iron
Steel is neither, but it is a mixture of iron with carbon
