A homonuclear molecule is a diatomic molecule consisting of 2 molecules with the same nuclei (H2, O2, etc) these molecules are nonpolar, covalents and have inversion symmetry.
A heteronuclear molecules is a diatomic moleculein with the 2 nuclei are different (CO, NaCl, etc) they are generally polar and ionic. The use of "u" and "g" in classifying the orbitals is unneeded as the is no inversion symmetry.

What is meant by homocosy?
homonuclear correlation spectroscopy stands for HOMOCOSY
Give examples of three different heteronuclear diatomic molecules using hydrogen and atoms from only group 7 of the periodic table?
HCl HBr HF
The bond order of a homonuclear diatomic molecule can be decreased by .?
You can decrease the bond order of a molecule like F2 or B2 by adding 1 electron to the neutral molecule.
An example of a molecular formula for a diatomic molecule is?
A diatomic molecule is any molecule that consists of any two atoms. It can be homonuclear (having two of the same element), like O2 (oxygen) and N2 (nitrogen), or heteronuclear (having two different elements), like CO (carbon monoxide).
What do we mean by homo-nuclear molecule?
A homonuclear molecule is one in which all the atoms are of the same element. Examples are H2 and P4 or even a diamond, which consists of a giant molecule composed of carbon atoms.
What compound is made of diatomic molecules?
Diatomic molecules include hydrogen H2, oxygen O2, nitrogen N2, chlorine Cl2, fluorine F2, bromine Br2 and iodine I2; these are homonuclear diatomic molecules because they contain the same atoms. Heteronuclear diatomic molecules include hydrochloric acid HCl, carbon monoxide CO and nitric oxide NO.
What forms diatomic covalent molecules?
Diatomic homonuclear molecules are hydrogen H2, oxygen O2, nitrogen N2, fluorine F2, chlorine Cl2, bromine Br2, iodine I2 and (theoretically) astatine At2. Diatomic heteronuclear molecules encompass a broader range of compounds such as carbon monoxide CO, hydrogen chloride HCl, lithium iodide LiI, cyanide CN and calcium oxide CaO.

homonuclear correlation spectroscopy stands for HOMOCOSY
What is the result when two identical nonmetals are bonded together?
A nonpolar covalently bonded homonuclear diatomic molecule.
What has the author Muftah O Darwish written?
Muftah O. Darwish has written: 'Intermolecular interactions of heteronuclear aromatic compounds probed by spectroscopic methods'
Which of the transitions in the electronic spectrum of a homonuclear diatomic molecule is forbidden?
g->g, u->u + -> -, - -> + Delta |Lambda| > 1
Give examples of three different heteronuclear diatomic molecules using hydrogen and atoms from only group 7 of the periodic table?
HCl HBr HF
Is F2 classified as a polar covalent?
No, fluorine F2 is a homonuclear molecule so there is no difference in electronegativity. This means that fluorine is a nonpolar compound.
The bond order of a homonuclear diatomic molecule can be decreased by .?
You can decrease the bond order of a molecule like F2 or B2 by adding 1 electron to the neutral molecule.
What are O2 N2 Cl2 and I2 examples of?
O2, N2, Cl2, I2, as well as F2, Br2, and H2 are all diatomic elements.
