A glass of water has more molecules than there are stars in the night sky, said Jack Zhang, an assistant professor of chemistry at Washington State University.

“Everything around us is made up of molecules,” Zhang said, “and while these molecules may be different, they are all made of the same things.”

For the full answer about molecules, see the Dr. Universe website.
