an instance is an object.

we create an instance of a Class.

e.g.

ArrayList myList = new ArrayList();

Here we are creating an instance of the ArrayList class, and keeping a
reference to it in the 'myList' variable.

they are two different names of the same thing. With instance you
emphasising that the object was created from a class and that classes
are sort of like cookie cutters to stomp out nearly identical objects.

You might say that Dog object there is an instance of class Dog.
