Answer:
An element is a pure substance as it cannot be broken down or transformed into a new substance even by using some physical or chemical means. Elements are mostly metals, non-metals or metalloids. Compounds, on the other hand, are also pure substances when two or more elements are combined chemically in a fixed ratio.

Explanation:
Pure substances are either elements or compounds. Elements can NOT be separated into other types of matter (physically or chemically). Therefore, elements are pure substances.
