Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Recompounds

👉 Recompounds are compounds that contain a different atom or group of atoms than the parent compound. For example, if we have a molecule with carbon and hydrogen atoms, it is not considered a compound because it does not contain any other elements. However, if we add another element (e.g., oxygen) to this molecule, it becomes a recompound because it contains both carbon and oxygen atoms in different arrangements.
