Molecule
Two or more atoms joined together are called molecules. These molecules can be composed of the same type of atoms, known as elements, or different types of atoms, forming compounds.
Elements in compounds are related through chemical bonds, where atoms are joined together to form molecules. These bonds can be covalent (sharing electrons) or ionic (transferring electrons). The properties of compounds are determined by the types of elements present and the arrangement of atoms within the molecule.
Compounds formed by nonmetals or a combination of nonmetals and metalloids are typically joined by covalent bonds. These bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms to achieve stability. Examples include water (H2O), methane (CH4), and carbon dioxide (CO2).
Molecular compounds consist of covalent bonds formed by sharing electrons between atoms, while ionic compounds involve the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, resulting in the formation of positive and negative ions. Molecular compounds typically have lower melting and boiling points compared to ionic compounds and are often composed of nonmetals. Ionic compounds tend to have higher melting and boiling points, are composed of metals and nonmetals, and form crystalline lattices.

If the compounds only contain carbon and hydrogen, they are called alkanes.
A molecule is made of two or more atoms joined together through chemical bonds. These atoms can be the same element or different elements, leading to the formation of various compounds.
Molecules are made of different atoms joined together through chemical bonds.
A compound consists of 2 or more atoms joined in a definite ratio. This means that compounds have a specific arrangement of atoms in fixed proportions.
