Mandarin, 普通话 is one form of the Chinese language that can be used to indicate Chinese. However, keep in mind that while mandarin is Chinese, not all Chinese languages are mandarin. Chinese language can be Cantonese, Min, Hunanese, Hakka, and more. So, Mandarin is not completely same as Chinese, it is simply the standard and most common dialect of the Chinese language.
