A compound is made of of 2 or more elements. Elements are made up of atoms. So compounds are also made up of atoms because they are made up of elements.

Compounds are substances made up of two or more different elements that are chemically bonded together. The smallest unit of a compound is a molecule, consisting of atoms which are in turn made up of subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Chemical bonds link these particles, determining the structure and properties of the compound.
