The chemical substances which are composed of molecules formed from an atom or more than one atom held by chemical bonds are known as chemical compounds. The chemical compounds are denoted by their specific chemical formula that contains the number of atoms of the elements. For example, water has two hydrogens and one oxygen atom so its chemical formula is H2O, methane contains carbon, and three hydrogen atoms that make it chemical formula as CH3.
