elements only combine with other elements of the same type.

Explanation:

Elements are pure substances made of only one - type of atom. They can chemically combine with other elements to form compounds which have different properties from the constituent elements. Compounds are made of elements, not the other way around, and elements cannot be broken down into different types of atoms by ordinary chemical means. Also, elements can combine with different types of elements.

Answer:

Elements can combine into compounds with new properties.
