A molecule is composed of elements, atoms or particles, therefore we can have the Avogadro's number, which is the total number of elements for 1 mol of a compound, this value is 6.02*10^23 atoms, therefore, we have more elements than molecules on earth, since a molecule can be composed of many elements.
