How do you recognize forms of matter?

everything is matter. compound: substance made up of atleast two different kinds of atoms joined together by chemical bonds. ie H2O. Molecules: two or more atoms of the same element joined together by chemical bonds ie. O2 or Cl2. mixtures: a combination of two or more compounds combined together without chemical bonds that can be separated by means of physical separation. ie sea water element: a single atom that has not been combined with anything else. ie. 1 hyrogen atom. hope this is what you ment:)
