Relation is one record in the database or a tuple. Relationship is that how tables are connected to each other.
Database Instance The term instance is typically used to describe a complete database environment, including the RDBMS software, table structure, stored procedures and other functionality. It is most commonly used when administrators describe multiple instances of the same database.Also Known As: environment Examples: An organization with an employees database might have three different instances: production (used to contain live data), pre-production (used to test new functionality prior to release into production) and development (used by database developers to create new functionality). RELATION SCHEMA A relation schema can be thought of as the basic information describing a table or relation. This includes a set of column names, the data types associated with each column, and the name associated with the entire table. For example, a relation schema for the relation called Students could be expressed using the following representation: Students(sid: string, name: string, login: string, age: integer, gpa: real) There are five fields or columns, with names and types as shown above.
As I understand it, a database schema is a physical entity, it describes the structure of exactly how the data is stored and is itself stored by DBMS for reference. Data model, on the other hand, is an abstract representation of database.
Data abstraction is the reduction of a body of data to a simplified representation of the whole. Data abstraction is usually the first step in database design in order to create a simplified framework that can be added to in order to complete the database.
The domain of the inverse of a relation is the range of the relation. Similarly, the range of the inverse of a relation is the domain of the relation.
Relation is one record in the database or a tuple. Relationship is that how tables are connected to each other.

A relation represented using symbolic argument-style representation. The relation term and the arguments are symbols, the bindings are represented by the positions of the arguments.A relation represented using a connectionist argument-style representation. The arguments are fed to dedicated banks of units, and their bindings are represented using the tensor product.benjames_charles@yahoo.com

Logical Structure of database is know as database schema. All database entities are defined and relation between then is represented in structured way. It includes all constraints to be apply on each identity.
In database theory, a relation is defined as a set of tuples that have the same attributes. A tuple is also known as a row or record.
