Definition : any material (such as argon, hydrogen, iron, or oxygen) that cannot be broken down into more smaller substances. Chemical element has a specific type of atom, and chemical compounds are created when atoms of different elements are bound together into molecules.

Element Proper
Fact : Do you know that everything on earth is made up of elements .
Come to think of it, what actually on earth is devoid of elements, what!!!
I can boldly say nothing .
First of all, let me start with material things like clothes, bags, shoes, sandals, etc, are all made up of chemistry, for e.g the clothes are made up of silk, the silk comes from a tree, the tree survive by carbon dioxide and rain ( water fall) , water is made up of Hydrogen and Oxygen, which both are regarded as the most common. Even where the trees are planted is by sand ( made up of Silicon and Oxygen).
I repeat what on earth is devoid of chemistry?
Secondly life without chemistry is full of crisis ( GOD AND JESUS IS THE ULTIMATE ) , if we don't don't breath, we automatically join our ancestors, but since we do we live by the chemist. For crying out loud we should stop to give credit to technology in this era (21st) , technology doesn't deserve that name, who those is chemistry.
Chemistry has been a life lasting achievement in this world currently , must note if you don't have where to stay you can't enjoy your so called technology ( building ain't technology, for me) , the bricks used is made up of sand and cement of which is a significant of chemistry
If I start talking about chemistry, I will never end because there are many things to highlight on.
OK let's talk about the transportation aspect, (even the car is chemistry, ), the fuel we use is from chemistry without them we can't fly from one place to another. Now people will ask what of cars that don't use fuel and Diesel, the sun that sustains the vehicle is chemistry ( solar radiation).
I think is time to hang up, CHEMISTRY IS THE TRUE DEFINITION OF THIS ERA(21ST) CENTURY
