Explanation:

Question 20 (the orange dots problem)

Step1: Recall definitions

An element is a pure substance made of only one type of atom. A compound is made of two or more different atoms bonded. A mixture has different substances not bonded.

Step2: Analyze the diagram

The orange dots are all identical (same type of atom, no bonding, just individual atoms or molecules of the same element). So it's an element.

Answer:

Element (the option "Element")
