Is an element a substance made up of different kinds of atoms bonded together?

No it isn't. An element is one kind of atom, it is not made of different kinds of atoms.


N2 is a compound or element?

N2 is a diatomic molecule of nitrogen. It is an element, not a compound. Elements are composed of only one kind of atom. Compounds are composed of two or more different elements that are chemically bonded.


What type of substance contains more than one kind of element?

A compound contains more than one kind of element. Compounds are made up of two or more different elements that are chemically bonded together. This differs from elements, which are pure substances made up of only one type of atom.


How can a molecule be either n element or a compound?

A molecule is an element if it contains only one kind of atom, like oxygen, O2, and chlorine, Cl2. A molecule is a compound if it contains more than one kind of atom, such as water H2O, or methane, CH4.


Are chemical compounds composed of one kind of molecule?

A compound involves two or more different elements bonded together. Molecules can also be formed from a single element, for example, the nitrogen molecule which consists of two nitrogen atoms bonded together; since only one element is involved, that does not qualify as a compound.


What is different between element and compound?

An element is a pure substance made up of only one type of atom, such as oxygen or gold. A compound is a substance made up of two or more different elements chemically bonded together, like water (H2O) or salt (NaCl).


What contains more than one kind of atom bonded together?

None. All elements consist of only 1 type of atom.


How can you tell the difference between a compound or element?

Element: a substance made up of one kind of atom.Compound: a substance formed when two or more elements are chemically joined together.Mixture: made up of two or more substances which are not chemically bonded together.


What is element compound ion and molecule?

An element is composed of only one kind of atom and cannot be broken down chemically. A compound is composed of atoms of two or more elements chemically bonded, and are either ionic or molecular. An ion is an atom that has gained or lost one or more electrons, developing a negative or positive charge, respectively. A molecule is two or more atoms covalently bonded.


What is made of one kind of atom or one kind of molecule?

Atom are made up of Protons, electrons and neutrons.Atoms combine together by chemical bonding to form a particular molecule. for example, one carbon and four hydrogen atoms combines to forms methane (CH4)


Why is water h2o classified as a compound but oxygen gas o2 is not?

Water (H2O) is classified as a compound because it consists of two different elements (hydrogen and oxygen) that are chemically bonded together. Oxygen gas (O2) is classified as a pure substance or element because it is made up of two atoms of the same element (oxygen) bonded together.


What kind of matter is formed when atoms of two or more element bond?

If three or more elements are bonded together in a compound (Eg. H2SO4) then that compound is called a "Polyatomic" ion. "Poly" meaning three or more. If there are only two atoms, it is Diatomic (Di meaning two). An example of a diatomic molecule would be CO2.
