Answer:

Element

Explanation:

<em>When atoms can't be chemically separated into simpler substances, they are an element.</em>

Alternatively: Oxygen can be found in the Periodic Table of Elements. Thus, it is an element.

All the other options (solution, mixture, compound and colloid) refer to different way in which two or more substances (be it elements or molecules) are together.

What you can do is organize them by color, what matter they are in room temperature, their molecular structure, or what kind of conductor in electricity and heat it is. I'm not sure what the format is supposed to look like but first just organize them all in different categories.
