Table Salt (NaCl) is a compound, formed from Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl)
All elements are found on the Periodic Table; all compounds are chemically bonded elements; mixtures are never chemically bonded

Salt is a compound formed by two elements (Sodium and Chloride) that are ionically bonded. At least, this is true for table salt, which I'm assuming you are referring to. Technically, a salt is any compound of a metal and nonmetal ionically bonded. Although sodium chloride (table salt) is generally referred to as "salt" substances such as potassium chloride, potassium nitrate (also known as saltpetre), titanium dioxide (used as a white color pigment in the food industry), and many others are also salts.

This is tricky: Aluminum foil would be probably be considered an element unless it's treated in the manufacturing process. However, aluminum is easily oxidized to Al2O3 so the exposed surface would be a compound.
