A mixture is a combination of two or more substances (elements, compounds, or both) that are not chemically combined. In the given picture, there are two types of substances: one - type of single atoms (which are elements) and one - type of diatomic molecules (which are also elements as they are made up of only one type of atom). Since it is a combination of different elements (single atoms and diatomic element molecules), it is a mixture of elements.
