Answer

A compound is a substance formed when two or more chemical elements are chemically bonded together in a fixed ratio. The elements in a compound lose their individual properties and form new ones.

For example, water (H₂O) is a compound formed from hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen and oxygen are gases, but water is a liquid at room temperature.
