Answer: similarities

- there are some cases where the element confer some of its own properties to the compound, so there are properties which are similar between the element and the compound, for example when an element is strongly charged with electrons, the element confer this property to the compound, and this similar between them.

- the other similarity is that both, the compound and element are formed of atoms, electrons and neutrons.

differences

The principal difference is that a element is conformed only by one element but a compound can be conformed for more than two elements.
