A piece of rock is not considered a compound but rather a mixture of different minerals. Each mineral in the rock is typically a compound composed of different elements. Compounds are substances composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together in specific proportions, whereas mixtures are physical combinations of substances.

How would you install commercial 2X4 ceiling tile to a dry wall ceiling?

Sheet rock screws. Alternative: If you have a hole in your ceiling and want to fix it you use a piece of wood to hold a piece of Sheetrock which you will finish with plaster or joint compound. You would cut a piece of wood more narrow than the hole and longer than the hole. Put the wood into the hole so it cannot fall out. Cut a piece of Sheetrock to about match the hole and screw the new piece of Sheetrock to the wood. Use joint compound to give the repair a finished look. If you simply put joint compound into the hole it will crack and take many coats. Paint.
