You can, but it may be better to make two separate sentences.
You should use a comma before the conjunction in a compound sentence. For example, "I like apples, and she likes oranges."
No, a semicolon is not necessary in a compound sentence if a coordinating conjunction is not used. You can use a comma to separate the independent clauses in a compound sentence instead.
1. By ending the first sentence with a period and starting a new sentence with the new thought. 2. By placing a semicolon between the two sentences. 3. By placing a comma and conjunction after the first sentence. 4. By making one of the sentences dependent on the other.
No, a comma cannot replace a conjunction in a compound sentence. Conjunctions are used to connect independent clauses in a compound sentence, while commas are used to separate items in a list or to provide additional information within a sentence.
"In compound sentences, independent clauses are connected by a conjunction." "We attended the state dinner held in conjunction with a visit by Chinese leaders." "Geologic studies were being done in conjunction with a search for new natural gas deposits."
One way to fix a run on sentence is to split the sentence into two separate sentences. You can use coordinating conjunctions using for, and, nor, but, or, yet and so this is also known as FANBOYS. You can also use a comma as well. If the sentences are closely related you can separate them with a semicolon.

Some say yes, and some say no: there is disagreement on the definition of a run-on sentence.A run-on sentence always involves improperly joined (that is, without correct punctuation or conjunction) independent clauses. Some usage authorities define a run-on sentence strictly as having no punctuation or conjunction separating the independent clauses, while others use a broader definition that includes independent clauses joined only by a comma (the definition of a comma splice).Comma splice example: I packed my bags last night, I'm all set to go.An example of a run-on sentence with no punctuation or conjunction between the independent clauses is "I packed my bags last night I'm all set to go."

Where may be used as a noun, adverb, or conjunction. "Where are you from?" (noun) "Where is the telephone?" (adverb) "I decide to go where no one could find me." (conjunction)
I wouldn't use a semicolon in a conditional (if) sentence. Semicolons can join two independent clauses without a conjunction. The "if" clause in a conditional sentence is dependent, not independent.
Yes, when combining two independent clauses with a conjunction like "because" in a compound sentence, you typically use a comma before the conjunction.
