Molecules are not alive, However: 1. All matter is composed of tiny particles called molecules. 2. There are spaces between molecules. 3. Molecules are constantly moving. 4. Molecules attract one another. see link below for more details.

∙ 9y agoMolecules are in "active" or "inactive", "functional" or "non-functional", "native" or "degraded" form, but we can not strictly say they are alive or dead! When one uses a molecule are alive, this directly implies to the above!

∙ 13y agoNo, life is not easy to define, but generally, in order to be considered life it is necessary for something to; grow, reproduce, have a metabolism, and in some way respond to stimulus. (There are other things fairly commonly agreed upon too.)
Molecules are simply a collection of atoms bound together such that they share electrons. They certainly do not reproduce, or have a metabolism.

What is the importance of a molecule?
It is the next set of building blocks in life. Atoms, then you mix atoms together to get molecules, and basically nature uses these molecules to build things alive and dead. Anything "natural".
