    Elements and compounds are pure substances that cannot be broken down further. There are about 120 elements on the periodic table that can combine to form millions of compounds. Compounds are made of two or more elements bonded together in fixed ratios, with properties different from the individual elements. They are formed via chemical reactions and consist of molecules or ions held together by chemical bonds.
