What is the difference between an element and compound?

Physical change vs chemical change

Physical = dealing with appearance or a basic level. Can be changed without altering the chemical (Ex- color, density, shape. hardness, or boiling point) Chemical = deals with changes on the chemical level, some of which leads to some physical change. (Ex- flammability, toxicity, solubility, reactivity)
