An element is a pure substance. It is the purest and most basic form of any substance on Earth. There are a total of 118 discovered elements, 94 of which naturally occur on Earth. The 24 other elements are synthetic or man-made. Elements are atoms that are made of subatomic particles known as protons, electrons, and neutrons.
