Colorful compounds are typically the result of the presence of transition metals, which have partially filled d-orbitals that allow for electronic transitions between energy levels. When light hits these compounds, certain wavelengths are absorbed, while others are reflected or transmitted, resulting in the colors we perceive. Additionally, the ligands surrounding the metal ions can influence the energy levels of the d-orbitals, further affecting the color of the compound. Thus, both the metal itself and its coordination environment play crucial roles in determining the color of a compound.
Co,Ni makes cations of different colours. So they make easily identifiable compounds. Elements in the d group make colourful cations.
Group 1 elements are highly reactive metals that readily form compounds to achieve a stable electron configuration. Group 7 elements (halogens) have high electronegativity and easily react with other elements to form compounds. This reactivity makes them commonly found as compounds rather than in their pure elemental form.
Copper, Silver, and Gold occur as elements instead of compounds.
Compounds are formed from elements.
True. Compounds do not have the same properties as the elements that form them.

In terms of the total mass of the universe, it is single elements.
two or more different elements
Chemical compounds are formed from chemical elements.

Elements and compounds
Group 1 elements are highly reactive metals that readily form compounds to achieve a stable electron configuration. Group 7 elements (halogens) have high electronegativity and easily react with other elements to form compounds. This reactivity makes them commonly found as compounds rather than in their pure elemental form.
They use colourful and bright colours!
Elements become compounds after chemical reactions.
Because they have interlocking electrons as the different elements' electrons have been 'tangled'
