The example of a compound sentence is:

The statement "Social media is a great way to stay in contact with friends, but it can also be an addictive habit" is an example of a compound sentence.
To determine if a sentence is compound, we look for two independent clauses (complete thoughts) that are connected by a coordinating conjunction (like "but," "and," or "or"). In this case, we have two independent clauses: "Social media is a great way to stay in contact with friends" and "it can also be an addictive habit." These independent clauses are joined by the coordinating conjunction "but," making it a compound sentence.
