Compounds can be exemplified in two main ways. These are Chemical Formula and Molecular Model.

Chemical formula includes:

Structural formula - this is a formula that shows the arrangement of atoms in the molecule of a compound.

Molecular formula - this is a formula giving the number of atoms of each elements to present in one molecule of a specific compound.

Empirical formula - this is a formula giving the proportions of elements present in a compound.

Molecular model:

Space-filling model - represents atoms fill the space between each other.

Ball and stick model - represents atoms as balls and chemical bonds as sticks.

Remember that a compound is a substance that is formed when two or more elements are bonded together.
