Step-by-step explanation:

hope that helps:))

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A compound is a makeup of molecules.

• Every organism is made up of an atom.
• Combined atoms can create a molecule
• Combined molecules can create a compound.

When you make a compound, you are combining molecules. But when you make a molecule, you are not combining compounds, you are combining atoms.

Examples:

Atoms:

`\mathrm{H}` (hydrogen) and
`\mathrm{N}` (nitrogen)

Molecules:

`\mathrm{H_2}` and
`\mathrm{N_2}`

Compounds:

`\mathrm{H_2SO_2}` and
`\mathrm{NaCL}`

Take a look at the Compounds and Molecules section. The
`\mathrm{H_2}` in the example of a molecule is in one of the examples of the compounds, but the
`\mathrm{H_2SO_2}` (THE WHOLE THING) is not in the molecule. This shows how every compound is a molecule, but every molecule is not a compound.
