Is sulfide an element or a compound?

A sufide is an anion form of the element sulfur. It can form compounds if it combines with other elements. Sulfide on it's own is not a compound, you need a prefix to that like Hydrogen Sulphide. Do not get this mixed up with a sulfate; you can get copper sulphate but not copper sulfide.
