An atom is the smallest component of any element having all the chemical properties of that specific element. A compound is a substance consisting of two or more different elements. Minerals are solid homogeneous inorganic compounds having specific chemical compositions that can be represented by chemical formulas. They are different from rocks, which can be a mixture of minerals and non-minerals and do not have a specific chemical composition.
