Compounds are made up of different types of atoms bonded together from "summary" of Chemistry Simplified NCERT Class 11 by Sanjay Sharma

Compounds are formed when atoms of different elements combine through chemical bonding. These atoms come together to create a new substance with unique properties. For example, when sodium, a highly reactive metal, combines with chlorine, a poisonous gas, they form sodium chloride, a common table salt. In this compound, sodium atoms donate an electron to chlorine atoms, resulting in the formation of a stable ionic bond. The atoms in a compound are held together by various types of chemical bonds, such as ionic bonds, covalent bonds, or metallic bonds. Ionic bonds are formed when electrons are transferred from one atom to another, creating positively and negatively charged ions that attract each other. Covalent bonds, on the other hand, are formed when atoms share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. In metallic bonds, electrons are delocalized and free to mov...
