Chemistry
:
Atom,
Element, Molecule and Compound :
Atom :
Atom
Atoms
are composed of particles called protons, electrons and neutrons.
Atom
Shell
Electrons
keep moving on is shell outside Nucleus. Each shell has a fix number
of electrons. The electrons in the outer most shell is called Valence
Electrons and outer most shell is called Valance Shell. Atoms bond
with another atom to form a molecule with these Valance Electrons
in Valance Shell. Atoms always keep trying to fill their shells.

Element
:
Element
Element
is the simplest type of pure substance. It is made up of same Atoms.
An Element cannot be broken down into a different substance which
means that even if you break some part of the Element still the
Atoms will remain same.
Example :
A diamond is made up of one type of particle and Atom is a smallest
particle of that matter. The pure Atoms combined in a matter (diamond)
is Element.
There are currently 118 different elements as mentioned in below
periodic table.

Molecules
:
Atoms
are the basic building blocks of ordinary matter. Atoms can join
together to form molecules, which in turn form most of the objects
around you.
Example
:
An Oxygen Atom can hold up to 8 Electrons but it only has 6 in this
case it is looking for more Electrons to fill its shell. Assume
we have 2 Hydrogen Atoms each having 1 Electron in its outer shell
but it can hold 2 electrons hence it is also looking for more Electrons.
So the Oxygen Atom bonds with 2 Hydrogen Atoms to fill its shell
by sharing 1 Electron from each Hydrogen Atom. Here the requirement
of Hydrogen Atom is also fulfilled.
By this combination they become Water Molecules. Hence the chemical
bonding of 2 different Atoms forms a Molecule.
Compound :
Compound
Two or more Atoms chemically combined make a molecule.
A substance made of two or more chemically combined elements forms
a compound. A compund is interchangeable (capable of replacing or
changing places with something else).
A
Compund can be be broken down into a different substance this is
known as depolymerization.
Chemistry with Religion :
It is said in Ancient text that Indra and other Gods used to change
their shape this is because they were able to change their compound
through Vibrations created by mantras.
An Element consists of single atoms by this we can say that Lord
Vishnu, Shiv and Goddess Parvati are Ajanma (unborn) which means
they are Atoms and Kailash can be called as Element.
When
two Atoms chemically combined make a molecule
and hence from religious point of view the combination of Shiv and
Shakti which are two different Atoms
when they both get combined together they form a Molecule.
A compund consists of molecules which means Lord Ganesh, Kartik
and even we all humans are molecules. Planet earth on which we all
humans live together can be called as Compound.
A Compund can be broken down into a different Substance this is
known as Depolymerization hence we all are same Molecule living
on a Compound known as Earth but with different Substance because
we all think and act differently.
In
our religious texts it is written that God says I exists everywhere
and you are a part of me. I am in you and you are in me.
If
we worship only one God we are doing depolymerization of our own
self but if we worship many Gods we remain as a Molecule of Shiv
and Shakti.
Attaining Moksh (salvations) means merging our Molecule / Atom
with the main Molecule / Atom which forms Compound / Element.
