A compound is composed of different kinds of atoms that are covalently bonded together. Compounds are made up from atoms of different elements.
It is an element, composed of atoms.
Atoms are elements, not compounds. Compounds are composed of two or more different atoms. For example, the element carbon, with the symbol C, is composed of atoms. If you combine carbon and oxygen to make carbon dioxide (CO2) then you have a compound, composed of molecules, each of which have 3 atoms, one carbon and two oxygen.
That varies with the substance. H2O is composed of 3 atoms. C6H12O6 is composed of 24 atoms.
When two or more atoms combine together the form a molecule. One example of this relationship is H2O (water), which is a combination of 2 atoms of hydrogen (1 molecule of hydrogen) and 1 atom of oxygen.
Hydrogen gas
Elements are the simplest type of chemical. An element is composed of atoms. Atoms in turn are composed of subatomic particles. However, all substances are composed of atoms, and there are no substances composed only of subatomic particles - at least, not on Earth. It is believed that there exist neutron stars composed only of neutrons. In that situation, you could say that the neutron is the smallest type of substance.

They are molecules composed of two atoms of the same element.
All materials contain atoms of chemical elements.

Ancient Greek philosophers.

Atoms! All matter is composed of atoms. Whether it's a pure sample of an element, a compound, or a mixture; solid, liquid, or gas, it all comes down to atoms. The word atom was coined by a Greek thinker named Democritus, who was the first to theorize that all matter was made up of some kind of indivisible particle, which he called "atomos," meaning indivisible. Thanks, Democritus!

The initial statement in this question is false, carbon atoms do share electrons with other carbon atoms. An example of when they do share electrons can be found in diamond, where the carbon atoms form a tetrahedral shape to form one of the strongest naturally occurring substances..
