Answer:
Elements (one kind of atom) cannot be broken down by chemical means, as they are at its purest form
Mixtures and Compounds however, can be broken down to multiple individual elements
A pure substance is something that occurs in nature. An element is made up of one type of atom only and cannot be split further. A compound has the combined properties of the elements from which it is made. ... A molecule always contains different kinds of atoms.
