O₂ is a compound, O is an element. what the compound is made of is irrelevant, because it is still a compound, and as such there is no way it can be your favorite element

Mercury. Because stuff, that's cool.

I'd have to say my favorite element is carbon because of its versatile uses, from steel to living beings, etc.

My favorite compound is probably either C₆H₁₂O₆ because sugar, or KNO₃ (potassium nitrate) because gunpowder.

Chlorine

Because it steals electrons from water and turns it into hydrochloric acid
