A compound is a substance of two or more elements bounded together in definite atomical proportions
Compounds can be described using element symbols and numbers
This is a chemical compound.
This is a chemical compound (a molecule).
The Law of Multiple Proportions states that two or more compounds may be made from the same elements but each compound will obey the Law of Definite Proportions. Combining two elements to create another element can only be done with precise measurements of each element or another element would be created instead of the one intended.
This is an old rule (Law of definite proportions) not valid for nonstoichiometric compounds.
A compound is a substance formed by the combination of two or more elements in definite proportions. Each compound has a specific chemical formula that indicates the types of atoms present and the ratio in which they are combined.
A compound is the substance formed by the chemical combination of two or more elements in definite proportions. It has a unique chemical structure and properties different from its constituent elements.
A chemical compound. The combination of two or more elements in definite proportions forms a compound. For instance, hydrogen and oxygen combine in a two to one ratio in order to form water. Similarly, one sodium atom reacts with one chlorine atom to form the ionic compound sodium chloride.

The law of definite proportions states that a compound always contains the same elements in the same proportion by mass, regardless of the source of the compound. This means that for a given compound, the ratio of the masses of the elements is always constant.
A compound is the pure substance formed from the chemical combination of two or more different elements in a fixed ratio.
This is a chemical compound.
The law you are referring to is the Law of Definite Proportions. This law states that a chemical compound always contains the same elements in the same proportions by mass, regardless of the source of the compound.
Water most definitely IS a compound! It is a compound composed of hydrogen and oxygen atoms chemically bonded in a definite proportion of 2H:1O. The molecular formula is H2O. A compound is a pure substance composed of different elements chemically bonded in definite proportions.
This statement was made by French chemist Joseph Proust and is known as the Law of Definite Proportions. It states that a compound always contains the same elements in the same proportions by mass regardless of the source of the compound.
