Is water is a diatomic molecule?

i think the answer is yes because one user already said that oxygen wasnt so water is because i narrowed it down as an answer.


What are the only elements in that exist you nature as isolated atoms?

I would say the noble gases since as gases their atoms are isolated and they do not form diatomic molecules like all the other gaseous elements.


What is true about atoms in helium gas?

They are helium atoms and have all the properties of helium. Helium is mono-atomic [as are all of the noble gases] Non-noble gases [those gases that react with other elements/compounds] are diatomic meaning that in the gaseous state the atoms are paired on to another.


Is not an example of a diatomic element?

A diatomic element exists as a molecule containing two of its atoms, such as chlorine (Cl2) and bromine (Br2). Elements that are not diatomic include monatomic elements (noble gases such as Ar, Ne) and triatomic elements (ozone, O3).

How many atoms are in a molecule of hydrogen?

There are two hydrogen atoms in a hydrogen molecule. It is a diatomic molecule, meaning that there is two atoms in one molecule. Many gases are diatomic. In the Periodic Table there are 11 elements that are gases at Room Temperature: Hydrogen, Helium, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Neon, Chlorine, Argon, Krypton, Xenon and Radon. Of these gases, the ones that are diatomic are: Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine and Chlorine. One liquid and two solids are also diatomic, the liquid: Bromine, the solids: Iodine and Astatine.


Why don't noble gases form diatomic molecules?

Noble gas atoms can not lose energy by combining to form diatomic molecules, because each individual atom already has a filled outer electron shell.


Why air is diatomic?

Air is diatomic because it is a mixture of inert gases like nitrogen which is also diatomic.


Are noble gases diatomic?

Noble gases have full outer electron shells, thus have no 'desire' to combine with anything, even its "brothers."Noble Gases are not diatomic.


What element made of molecules with two atoms?

A molecule made of two identical atoms is called diatomic.Five diatomic elements exist as gases at room temperature (25oC/298K) and atmospheric pressure:Hydrogen, H2Nitrogen, N2Oxygen, O2Fluorine, F2Chlorine, Cl2One diatomic element is a liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure:Bromine, Br2One diatomic element is a solid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure:Iodine, I2
