In the pack, there are (per tobacco industry report) 599 chemicals. When the cigarette burns, however, chemical reactions occur and many other chemicals are created--hence the 4000 chemicals in cigarette smoke figure.

Is hookah pipe bad for you?

Yes. Hookah smoking is not safer than cigarette smoking. The tobacco is no less toxic in a hookah pipe, and the water in the hookah does not filter out the toxic ingredients in the tobacco smoke. Hookah smoke contains high levels of toxic compounds, including tar, carbon monoxide, heavy metals and cancer-causing chemicals (carcinogens). In fact, hookah smokers are exposed to more carbon monoxide and smoke than are cigarette smokers.
