An element can have multiple class but multiple id, id are to differentiate an element from all others

an id is related to only one html element ..so when you apply css styles on that id ..only the specific element will be affected..while class can be used by any element even from different type in order to reduce repetition of code

to me I think id and class are almost the same, both does the same work. but when representing it in the CSS sheet is different the id makes use of "#" at the beginning while class doesn't make use of "#". for example: <p class="one"> I am a boy </p> one. { color:blue; } <p Id=" two"> I am a boy </p> #two { color:green; }

Id is only for specifying one element whereas class can specify multiple elements.
