By Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph.D. A compound is a chemical substance made up of two or more elements. Here is a list of examples of compounds made up of exactly two elements. 1  H 2 O-water. 2  NaCl-sodium chloride or table salt. 3  KCl-potassium chloride. 4  HCl-hydrochloric acid. 5  N 2 O-nitrous oxide. 6  AgI-silver iodide. 7  AlN-aluminum nitride.
An element is a substance made from only one type of atom. Remember this definition as you might need it in the exam! For example Carbon is made entirely from carbon atoms. Sodium is made entirely from sodium atoms. Unlike a compound, an element cannot be broken down (chemically) into a more simple substance. The periodic table shows all the elements. Atoms of the same element have the same number of protons and therefore have the same atomic number.
