Elements are not mixtures.
An element is composed of only one kind of atom. A compound is composed of two or more different elements. A mixture is just two or more substances mixed together. A classical experiment in school is to take a mixture of two substances, sand and salt; then to decide how to separate the two substances. That is usually done by putting them both into water; the salt dissolves thus allowing the salt to be recovered by boiling the water away. The sand (and any remaining water) are then placed on a filter paper. This lets the water through but not the sand, which might need a little more drying.

Does Mixture may consist of elements and compounds?
Yes, a mixture may consist of elements and compounds. A mixture is formed when two or more substances are physically combined without forming a new substance, so it can contain elements and compounds in various proportions.

Is magnesium oxide a mixture of two common elements?
No, it is a compound, not a mixture. Its formula is MgO, and it contains Magnesium and Oxygen (two fairly common elements).
Are reactants a mixture or a compound?
Reactants can be a mixture, compounds, a mixture of compounds and also elements. It depends on the reaction. Air is a mixture and is often a reactant for example.
Is metal alloys a mixture?

Is a mixture of elements a compound?
No, unless all the elements involved in the mixture are present in fixed atomic proportions to one another that are ratios of integers, thereby showing that the elements are chemically bonded.
What is a mixture of elements?
a mixture of elements can be a compound or simply a mixture. a compound is two or more elements of the periodic table joined together chemically. a mixture is where they are connected but not connected chemically. ask your chemistry teacher or something.
Is a mixture of elements a pure substance?
No a mixture is by definition not a pure substance.
Is batter a element mixture or a compound?
mixture as the elements are not chemically bonded :)
Is wood a mixture elements compounds?
Wood is a MIXTURE of many compounds, so your answer would be a mixture.
How do elements remain elements?
by not forming a compound or mixture with another element
