    Compounds First to define the word‚ compounds are pure substances made up of atoms of two or more elements chemically combined together in fixed ratios determined by mass. When a compound is formed from its components‚ a chemical change takes place through chemical reactions. Elements form compounds to become more stable‚ which happens when the maximum number of possible electrons are in the outermost energy level. Carbohydrates: A carbohydrate is one of the elements of the 5 major compounds

For example‚ hydrogen has 1 electron in its valance shell and it has the ability to fill that shell with up to 2 electrons thus it seeks another atom that
