In chemistry, compounds are made whenever two or more different elements come together. You use compounds every day, probably without realizing it. If you're baking a cake, you're using compounds. If you're swimming, you're using compounds. When you breathe, you're actually making compounds, because you inhale oxygen, and exhale carbon dioxide.
