Solution

The correct option is B Copper
Elements are pure substances made up of only one kind of atom. They cannot be broken down further using chemical methods.
  • Copper is an element made of a single type of atom.
  • Salt, water, and sugar are formed by a chemical combination of two or more elements. Hence, they are compounds.
