Answer

Every combination of atoms is a molecule. A compound is a molecule made of atoms from different elements. All compounds are molecules, but not all molecules are compounds. For example : Hydrogen gas (H2) is a molecule, but not a compound because it is made of only one element.

Hope that helps :)
