Solution

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