Answer 1

Compounds are collections of two or more elements bound together in a specific fixed ratio. Each element's ratio is typically represented by a chemical formula.

For example, water (#H_2#O) is a compound consisting of two hydrogen atoms bonded to an oxygen atom. The two elements are in a definite ratio, two atoms of Hydrogen chemically combine with one atom of oxygen to make chemical compound called water.

There is a chemical formula for compounds.

Sugar #C_12# #H_22# #O_11#, Salt NaCl, Glucose #C_6# #H_12# #O_6# are some examples of chemical compounds or simply compounds.
