Can this be played in a classroom group?

I designed it specifically for my classroom, so yes absolutely. I would suggest starting out by just using the 8 cards in a player's hand, and don't use the Action Tiles, remove the Transition Metal, the Polyatomic Ions and Radioactive Cards. Simply deal 8 cards to each player, and flip two goal cards faceup (3 if playing 5 or more players) and then that's it. Once students get the hang of it, then you can add those other components in. Also, the game will play up to 7 players per copy of the game. However, sometimes having 7 students at a single table can get crowded and rambunctious. I usually played with 4 or 5 students to a game. Hope that helps!

Can 2 play easily? Do the rules differ for two-player play?

2 will work, however 3 or 4 is much better.

What ages is this appropriate for?

We recommend 8 years and up but this age range is dependent on the players familiarization with traditional games and/or chemistry. It's not a really tough game to learn especially if there's an adult to teach the game and help walk younger players through the first few play throughs.

How does this compare to Compounded?

I don't know anything about the Compounded game, but this one is very hard to play. I reread the rules several times and couldn't follow the instructions on how to play and I'm a chemistry teacher! I didn't even try it out on my classes.
