A compound is a number of atoms have combined together, such as CO which is carbon monoxide. When 2 compounds join together you just get a bigger compound like CaCO3 calcium carbonate. The individual items in these compounds are the atoms, though they might have had to share some electrons (becoming ions), depending on how the combination happens.

What you mean by atom?
An atom is the basic unit of matter, consisting of a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons in orbitals.
