Compounds are distinguished from each other by their characteristic physical and chemical properties.
By physical and chemical properties
Elements with same functional group have same chemical properties. They possess different physical properties.
A substance that has properties different from the chemical elements in it is a chemical compound. A chemical compound is built from chemical elements that are chemically bonded together. And the "finished product" will have chemical properties that are unique to that compound, and different from the properties of the substances that make it up.
Shiny and silvery are not chemical properties. These are physical properties.
Compounds are distinguished from each other by their characteristic physical and chemical properties.
Each chemical compound has specific chemical and physical properties.
inorganic chemical compounds with a wide rage of physical and chemical properties.
compounds and elements because only compounds and elements have a specific set of physical and chemical properties.
By physical and chemical properties

I would say it depends on what kind of compound it is.
Because an element is an element and a molecule is a molecule; they are different chemical entities and of course they have different chemical and physical properties.

All the properties are different for chemical elements and chemical compounds.
Here are some characteristics of compounds:Compounds are made up of 2 or more elements and they are all chemically bonded.The properties of a compound are different from the elements that make it up.Compounds can be broken back into elements by chemical reaction, exposure to light, etc.Compounds can be separated only chemically, not by physical meansThe mass of the compound is determined by the mass of the elements that make it up.When compounds are formed heat and light is given out or absorbed.Compounds have definite proportions.
Physical properties of metals include: luster, malleability, and ductility. Chemical properties include: forming cations, and reacting with nonmetals to form ionic compounds.
