No. Fire is not an element and it can never be or was! It was one of the 1000s or even millions of ancient and medieval proof-less, funny, unscientific, and false believes/thoughts that Fire is one of the fundamental things everything in this material world (including us!) and even heavenly bodies are made up of 5 elements/panchaboothas. Both Greeks and Indians are among these. There are no such elements called sky/space/akasha/ether, Earth/bhoomi, Fire/heat, Water, and Air/Vaayu. We are not made up of any of these elements apart from water. Unfortunately, there are many people around the globe who still believe in this myth. Do not blindly believe in anything without proof(s) whether is science or religion! There is no such rule that belief(ies) of majority of people should be or will be true ;-)

None of these are elements. Water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen. The salt in your salt shaker is a compound of sodium and chlorine.

How do you calculate the grams of an element in a specific amount of a compound?
