2 or more types of atoms can be in a compound
Definitely! There are literally hundreds of different types of atoms. First there are a little over 100 known elements, but each of those elements has a number of different isotopes, and each isotope of each element is a unique combination of protons, neutrons and electrons. And if you count atoms that have a net charge (called ions), that adds a lot more combinations!See the Related Questions for more information, as well as the Web Links for a link to a periodic table of all the elements.
A pure element contains one sort of atoms, and all the elements have the same number of protons (which define the element). But the atoms can have different masses, so called "isotopes" (see link). Thus, chemically there is only one kind of atoms in a pure element, but there can be several physically different kinds of nuclei in a pure element.
"No. There are just over 100 different types of atoms that can currently be found or made." wrong... atom is unique. atom is the smallest thing u can ever get to . this is occupied in all substances in the world.
Water's chemical name is H20 because it has 1 Hydrogen and 2 Oxygen atoms in each molecule. But only pure water is composed of this, so if it comes from the tap, it is impure, meaning it has other minerals in it. That's why we can "taste" water, we actually taste the impurities in it, but pure water has 2 different types of atoms.Answer 2Water is made of two different elements; hydrogen and oxygen.However it is not quite as simple as to say that therefore water is made up only of 2 different types of atoms because each element has what are known as isotopes.An isotope is a variation of an atom of a specific element. It is where the atom contains a different number of neutrons inside the nucleus.There are 2 hydrogen isotopes which occur in water: hydrogen 1 & hydrogen 2 (deuterium).There are 3 oxygen isotopes which occur in water: oxygen 16, oxygen 17 & oxygen 18.So, the vast majority of atoms in water will be made from just hydrogen 1 & oxygen 16, but in any given amount of water there may be up to 5 different types of atoms present.
There are not 100 types of atoms.
2 or more types of atoms can be in a compound
There cannot be more than 100 different atoms. I think you are confusing atoms and molecules. There are millions upon millions of different molecules because molecules are combinations of the 100 atoms. These combinations can be any number of the same atoms or of different atoms in different combinations. For example, the so-called hydrocarbons. These are different combinations of hydrogen and carbon: 1 carbon atom combined with 4 hydrogen atoms: methane, same as the natural gas used in cooking and heating some homes. 2 carbon atoms combined with 6 hydrogan atoms: ethane, similar to rubbing alcohol 8 carbon atoms combined with 18 hyrogen atoms: octane, the main ingredient in gasoline you put in your car. So while there are only about 100 different atoms, these can be combined into limitless combinations with other atoms into a limitless number of different molecules.

All materials are made of atoms and molecules which are the smallest bit of matter. If a material is made from all the same atoms (having the same atomic number) it is called an element. There are over 100 different types of elements.
Heavy atoms such as uranium have the capacity to radioactively decay into other types of atoms such as lead. That is the closest I can come to identifying an atom that contains three kinds of atoms.
My guess is that there are isotopes and ions of each element that count as different atoms.
