What is a molecule in chemistry?
Accepted Answer
A molecule is a group of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds. Molecules are the basic units of matter, and they form the building blocks of all living things. They can be composed of two or more atoms of the same element, such as oxygen (O2), or they can be composed of atoms of different elements, such as water (H2O).
