Is a mountain range larger than a chain?
The terms are often used synonymously, but one site I found, www.enotes.com, makes the following differentiation: "Mountain chains are elongate, elevated areas of the earth's surface comprising several sub-parallel mountain ranges. Each mountain range is a connected series of mountain peaks (i.e., large rock masses that rise abruptly above the surrounding landscape). Mountain chains may be a thousand or more kilometers long and hundreds of kilometers wide. Mountain chains are formed by the interplay of endogenic and exogenic processes. Endogenic processes are those that originate within the earth, such as orogenesis and volcanism. Exogenic processes are external processes, such as weathering and erosion due to the action of water, ice, and wind." So, according to them, a chain is made up of several ranges.
True for the Euclidean plane. There are consistent geometries (for example, projective geometry, or on the surface of a sphere where there may be none or more than one such lines.

"..the Andes are relatively young compared to the Himalayas and are still growing.

An Andes peak may yet top Mount Everest." (PBS documentary, "The Dragon's Back")

Where are mountains that have the worlds longest range located?
A mountain range is a single, large mass consisting of a succession of mountains or narrowly spaced mountain ridges, with or without peaks, closely related in position, direction, formation, and age; a component part of a mountain system or of a mountain chain.[1] Other definitions may include a mountain systemwhich is a group of mountain ranges exhibiting certain unifying features, such as similarity in form, structure, and alignment, and presumably originating from the same general causes; esp. a series of ranges belonging to an orogenic belt.[2] A mountain system or system of mountain ranges sometimes is used to combine several geological features that are geographically (regionally) related.
Mountain ranges are usually segmented by highlands or mountain passes and valleys. Individual mountains within the same mountain range do not necessarily have the same geology, though they often do; they may be a mix of different orogeny, for example volcanoes, uplifted testicles or fold mountains and may, therefore, be of different rock.
