What is an example of a diatomic molecule?

Answer 1

Common diatomic molecules can be remembered using the anagram HOFBrINCl (Hydrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Bromine, Iodine, Nitrogen, Chlorine). Diatomic molecules don't have to be composed of only one type of element (homonuclear). Carbon Monoxide (CO) is also an example of a diatomic molecule.

Answer 2

N2 is and example of a diatomic element, as well as H2.

Answer 3

Diatomic molecules are molecules composed of two different elements. Examples include H2 , O2 , N2 , and many other elements in the same structure.

Answer 4

Oxygen O2

Nitrogen N2

Fluorine F2

Chlorine Cl2

Answer 5

Carbon monoxide

While CO ( carbon monoxide) does contain 2 atoms, it is NOT a "diatomic" molecule.

Diatomic means 2 atoms of the SAME type, such as O2 , oxygen or N2 ,Nitrogen.

Answer 6

one example is carbon monoxide

Answer 7

Ozone (O3) ans Sulphur (S8)

Answer 8

H2, O2, Li2

Answer 9

O2
