{"Image DocumentName": "How Atoms CombineCompounds. A compound is a substance that is composed of atoms of two or more different elements that are chemically combined.", "Image ImageDescription": "Most compounds have totally different properties from the elements of which they are composed. For most elements, an atom is chemically stable when its outermost energy level is full. Chemical bonds are the forces that hold the elements together in a compound creating a state of stability.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
