One defining characteristic of a chemical compound is the inclusion of two or more chemical elements. When atoms of those different elements bond in a fixed ratio, the resulting molecules constitute a chemical compound. Molecules of a single chemical element (such as O2) are not considered compounds.
There are distinct molecules in in substances that form an ionic compound, it is just that when they form an ionic compound (a crystal lattice structure) the pattern in the sturcture is the dominant feature rather than separate molecules.
Molecules
Linked up atoms form matter called a compound
No. Helium consists of individual atoms and does not form molecules or compounds.
They can form a new compound.
A gas hasn't form and the molecules motion is free.A liquid has the form of the container and the molecules motion is slower.A compound is a molecule formed from two or more chemical elements chemically bonded.
That depends on the molecules. They could collide giving a reaction, or nothing could happen.
Neither. Hydrogen is an element, not a compound. Though it normally occurs in the form of covalently bonded molecules.
Because the boiling point of the compound is relatively low, the compound is likely to be in the form of individual molecules.
Molecules are a form of compound, but yes depending on the molecule they can be broken down into other compounds.
