NO!!!!!

Hydrogen gas as represented in the Periodic Table has the symbol 'H'.

As a gas it exists as the diatomic molecule (H2) (H - H)

This is NOT a compound. A compound is a substance that consists of two or more different elements e.g. Water (H2O) or Carbon dioxide (CO2).

NB A compound is a molecule

However. NOT all molecules are compounds.

e.g.

A particle of water is a molecule and a compound.

However, a particle of hydrogen is molecule , but NOT a compound.
