ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
Here we have to identify which of the following are elements, which are molecules but not compounds, which are- compounds but not molecules, and which are both compounds and molecules
Element:- An element is made of entirely one type of atom.
For example: 
Atom:- The smallest particle of an element which can exist.
Molecule:- Two or more atoms combined to form a molecule.
Compound:- A compound is a molecule that contains at least two different elements.
