A chemical compound that has a set number of atoms for each element. E.g. water H2O has the fixed ratio of 2:1, that is 2 hydrogen atoms to 1 oxygen atom, carbon dioxide CO2 has a fixed ratio of 1:2 (1 carbon atom to 2 oxygen atoms). It has to be fixed as if it isn't it makes a new compound/chemical.

How is a mixture differnt from a compound?
A compound is a combination of two or more elements that are chemically bonded together in a fixed whole number ratio. A mixture is composed of two or more substances (elements or compounds) mixed together, but not chemically bonded to one another and are generally not in a fixed ratio. Unlike a compound, the components of a mixture can be separated by physical means.
