  • Identifying Compounds: Carbon Dioxide Explained
    The answer is carbon dioxide. Here's why:

    * Compounds are formed when two or more different elements chemically combine in a fixed ratio.

    Let's break down the options:

    * Iron (Fe) is an element, not a compound.

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

    * Oxygen (O2) is an element (it exists as a diatomic molecule).

    * Calcium (Ca) is an element.

    Therefore, carbon dioxide is the only example of a compound in the list.
