Such a group of atoms is called a molecule.
It depends on what scale you are considering. On a particle level, if two or more atoms are joined by covalent bonds, you have a molecule. If it's an ionic bond you have a set of ions. If you are thinking of the substance on a large scale it would be a compound.
molecule
covalent bonds a bond (any type of bond, but JUST the word bond!)
Two atoms of oxygen joined together form a molecule of oxygen gas, denoted as O2. Each oxygen atom contributes one electron to form a stable bond, resulting in a diatomic molecule that is commonly found in the Earth's atmosphere.
Yes it is. A molecule is the smallest particle of a substance that retains the chemical and physical properties of the substance and is composed of two or more atoms; a group of like or different atoms held together by chemical forces.

A Molecule. Like an oxygen molecule O2 formed from 2 oxygen atoms.

Atoms are joined together to form compounds through chemical bonds. These bonds can be covalent, where atoms share electrons, or ionic, where atoms transfer electrons to achieve stability. The type of bond formed depends on the difference in electronegativity between the atoms involved.
Two or more elements that are chemically joined together is a compound, I think.

That would be a compound.
