Pure chlorine is an example of an element.
An element is a chemical substance that cannot be broken down into simpler components in a chemical reaction or by any chemical means, and is made up of atoms that all have the same number of protons. Pure chlorine is an example of an element because it contains only one kind of an atom. Chlorine is a toxic, green, gaseous chemical element. Chlorine is a halogen, has an atomic number of 17, symbol Cl and is found in group 17 in the periodic table. Chlorine is highly reactive and a strong oxidizing and disinfecting agent.
Oxygen is an element in the sixth group of the periodic table. This means it contains 6 electrons in its valence shell. Therefore, to complete its octet, it will prefer to gain two electrons rather than to donate 6. This is why its valency is -2. The relatively easy to achieve octet makes Oxygen a reactive element.
