Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When two or more elements combine chemically to each other then it results in the formation of a substance known as a compound.

On the other hand, a substance that contains same atoms is known as an element.

For example, F_{2} is a diatomic molecule and since it contains more than one atom so it is a compound also.

Therefore, we can conclude that when there is no change to the atoms in the compound then a compound can be treated like an element when balancing chemical equations.
