no, because the two elements must be of a like nature. you cannot put two together and try to make a compound if they "do not like eachother". it is like taking a cup of water and adding a bunch of oil to it. they do not go together. the elements must be "friendly" to eachother.

YES, it does because when the two elements combine e.g when magnesium burns in oxygen (oxygen and magnesium are two elements) the create a compound and also this can have a impact on the atomic mass

No, metal will not form compounds with other metals and the noble gasses will only form compounds with oxygen and fluorine.

Helium and neon don't form any compound.

What is an atom is it a molecule an element or a compound?

Atoms are the building blocks of all matter. Atoms are the most basic units of an element that have the properties of that element. Atoms of elements combine to form molecules, which can be molecular compounds, and atoms of elements can combine to form ionic compounds, as well. Compounds contain atoms of two or more elements chemically combined.
