  • What is a Molecule? Definition & Examples
    Yes, a molecule is a combination of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter.

    * Molecules are formed when two or more atoms bond together.

    For example:

    * Water (H₂O) is a molecule composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

    * Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a molecule made up of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.

    There are many different types of molecules, each with its own unique properties. The bonds between the atoms in a molecule determine how the molecule will interact with other molecules.
