The structure of an atom is very different from when atoms bond.
The structure of an atom, is basically the arrangement of the subatomic particles forming the atom. This includes the nucleus, made of protons and neutrons, and the electrons circling the nucleus.
When atoms bond together, it is when valence electrons are either taken from another atom or given to another atom to form a bond. Water, for example is a bond. It contains hydrogen and oxygen bonded together. This is where we get H2O. There are two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen to make the water molecule.
