The combination of the atoms of two or more elements is known as a/an ____.
Answer (2)
A compound. When two or more elements react (in a chemical reaction) with each other a new chemical bond is formed. The bond is formed between the atoms of each of the reacting elements thereby forming a new substance altogether. The compound will often exhibit different characteristics from the originating elements.
A compound is formed when two or more elements combine through chemical reactions, resulting in the creation of new substances with distinct properties. These compounds can be classified primarily as ionic or covalent based on the nature of the chemical bonds formed. Understanding compounds is essential for the study of chemistry, as they form the basis of many materials and reactions we encounter daily.
