If the elements are mixed, but do not react, this is a mixture, or possibly a solution.

If the substances chemically react to form a new substance, then it is a chemical reaction, and the substance created (through chemical bonding) is a compound.

The smallest unit of a compound is a molecule, which consists of two or more atoms in a specific arrangement.

(Molecules can also be made of one element, and are called allotropes.)
