A solid can be, but isn't necessarily, a compound.
Loosely speaking, a solid is a rigid structure which is significantly denser than a liquid or liquid.
A compound is simply more than on element connected via chemical bond.
Water is a compound of Hydrogen and Oxygen, for example.
Be careful not to confuse a compound with a mixture, a mixture is simply more than one substance mixed in with another, but they are not chemically bonded.
It is possible to have a mixture of compounds.
Hope this helps!
