An octave consists of the same note being sounded at different intervals one above or below the other, as in middle C and the C above or below it. A unison is the same note being sounded at the same place, as in a piano middle C and a guitar middle C being sounded simultaneously or two voices both singing middle C.

One difference between a whole tone scale and a pentatonic scale is that a whole tone scale has 6 notes per octave while a pentatonic scale has 5 notes per octave. Another major difference is that a whole tone scale has all adjacent notes a whole step apart, while a pentatonic scale does not consist entirely of whole steps, and since a pentatonic scale is only defined as a scale with 5 notes per octave, there are many pentatonic scales that are possible.
