Brief Explanations

An element is a pure - substance made of only one type of atom. A compound is a pure - substance made of two or more different types of atoms chemically combined. A pure substance has a fixed composition. When heating the liquid and getting a vapor and solid crystals, it shows that the original liquid has different components that can be separated by physical means (heating).
