2 different bonds hold atoms together. One in ionic where one atom steals the electron of another atom and thereby makes the first atom negative, and since the secound atom looses an electron it is positive, the bond comes when the ned. and pos. atoms attract eachother. The secound type of bond id called covalent, abd this occurs when 2 atoms share an electron. This type is much stronger.

No. A chemical bond is what holds to atoms together.

A chemical compound is two or more elements held together by such bonds.

A molecule: two atoms at least, so there's more that 2 sometimes, and they are held by covalent (chemical bond)

Basically all atoms in any compound are held together by chemical bonds. The only exceptions are atoms that do not react such as Helium, Neon, and Argon.
