Can a compound contain different number of atoms as long as it has the same kinds of atoms?

Your question is not so clear. Methane has carbon and hydrogen atoms, the chemical formula being CH4. Dodecane contain also carbon and hydrogen atoms, the chemical formula being C12H26; the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms is here different. Or, otherwise it is clear that 10 g of methane contain more atoms than 1 g of methane.
