How can two substances be made up of the same two elements but have very different properties?

So, basically, it might have different quantities, such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO), which are both made up of Carbon and Oxygen, but Carbon Monoxide has less oxygen. And they both have different properties, like CO is poisonous.

It is due to their structure ;

Different substances composed of the same elements, like carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, can have vastly different properties due to variations in their molecular structure and the ratio of the constituent elements. The distinct bonding and arrangement of atoms lead to different behaviors and effects of these compounds.
