Mollusca is a phylum of animals, just as Chordata (our phylum) is. It's a group with wonderful variety, including animals that don't even have brains (clams and oysters), through those with very simple ones (snails and slugs) to creatures some scientists suspect are as smart as dogs or monkeys (cuttlefish and squid).
