The compounds,[tex]2CH_{4}[/tex] and [tex]C_{2} H_{8}[/tex] have the same number and kind of elements but [tex]2CH_{4}[/tex] will be existing while [tex]C_{2} H_{8}[/tex] will not exist.

What is elements?

Any compound that could be broken down into simpler chemicals by regular chemical processes is referred to as a chemical element.

What is  compounds?

A compound is referred to as a substance created by the chemical fusion of two or more elements.

As given the molecular formula of compounds and they are [tex]2CH_{4}[/tex] and [tex]C_{2} H_{8}[/tex] .

It can be seen that in [tex]CH_{4}[/tex], four hydrogen will be attached by one carbon atom because it has 4 valence electrons. On the other hand 8 hydrogen can not be properly attached with 2 atoms of carbon . three hydrogen will be attached by one carbon. Hence, only 6 hydrogens will be attached by 2 carbon atom.

The compounds,[tex]2CH_{4}[/tex] and [tex]C_{2} H_{8}[/tex] have the same number and kind of elements but [tex]2CH_{4}[/tex] will be existing while [tex]C_{2} H_{8}[/tex] will not exist.
