What are the 7 common diatomic molecules?

Answer 1

Diatomic Elements

• Hydrogen (H2)
• Nitrogen (N2)
• Oxygen (O2)
• Fluorine (F2)
• Chlorine (Cl2)
• Iodine (I2)
• Bromine (Br2)

Mnemonic devices

• Made easy to remember think BrINClHOF (like a last name Brinclhof)

• If you highlight N, O, F, Cl, Br, I; six of the seven diatomic elements on a Periodic Table - they form the number 7. The 7th is hydrogen.

• Use the acronym I Bring Clay For Our New Home:

I = Iodine

Bring = Bromine

Clay = Chlorine

For = Fluorine

Our = Oxygen

New = Nitrogen

Home = Hydrogen

• Just remember that all the elements that end in -gen are diatomic, considering the elements that are in the halogengroup (F, Cl, Br, I) excluding At.

• You can also remember it by: BROHNFICL or HOFBrINCl (hoff - brincle)

• Another one which is very easy to remember is Have No Fear Of Ice Cold Beer. Students always seem to remember this one.

• Or you could use Horses Need Oats For Clear Brown Eyes

Answer 2

Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine ( and Astatine ).

An easy way to remember this is to think of the phrase:

Professor Brinclof (BrINClOF), or Br, I, N, Cl, O, F (and Astatine)

Another way to remember:

He Never Orders Fried Clam Brains Immediately

or:

Oh I Have Nice Closet For Brooms

Or

HOFBrINCl

Answer 3

Iodine (I), Bromine (Br), Chlorine (Cl), Florine (F), Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N), and Hydrogen (H)...... A good way to remember them is ( I Bring Clay For Our New Home )...... I,Br,Cl,F,O,N,H

Answer 4

Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Flourine, Iodine, Bromine, Chlorine.
