A substance made up of only one type of atom is called an element. Elements are the fundamental building blocks of matter and cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means. Examples include hydrogen, oxygen, and gold. In contrast, compounds are made of two or more different atoms bonded together, while mixtures contain multiple substances that are not chemically combined.
