A substance is an element if it consists of a single type of atom. A substance is a compound if it is made up of more than one element.

<h3>Elements and compounds</h3>

In chemistry, an element is defined as all pure substances consisting of the same atom. For example, magnesium and potassium metal are all elements because they consist of magnesium and potassium atoms only.

On the other hand, compounds are defined as substances consisting of 2 or more atoms of different elements. For example, sodium chloride consists of atoms of sodium and chlorine. Hence, it is considered to be a compound.

Answer: c. Matter and energy are conserved in chemical reactions.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of matter, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side.

For every chemical reaction, the law of conservation of energy is applicable which states that the energy of the system remains conserved. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can be transformed from one form to another.
