There is no single description for the combination of two undefined elements:

  • if they are the same element and nonmetallic, it would be a molecule.
  • if they are the same metallic element, they would form a metallic structure.
  • if they are different elements and are both nonmetallic, they could be described as either a compound or a molecule (or both; a molecular compound).
  • if they are both metals, they would form an alloy.
  • if one is metallic and one is nonmetallic, they would form a compound, specifically an ionic compound.
