If three or more elements are bonded together in a compound (Eg. H2SO4) then that compound is called a "Polyatomic" ion. "Poly" meaning three or more.
If there are only two atoms, it is Diatomic (Di meaning two). An example of a diatomic molecule would be CO2.
You're referring to a "nonpolar" bond. This occurs when both atoms have the same electronegativity. In any case of an element bonded with the same element, the bond is nonpolar.
Positive Ions
A diatomic molecule is a molecule formed by the covalent bonding between atoms of the same element. Examples include H2, O2, Cl2.
The answer depends on how the bond is formed. The bond between two atoms could be an ionic bond if the electrons are transferred between the two atoms or the bond could be covalent if the electrons are shared between the two atoms.
An ionic bond.
Double bond is a chemical bond formed when atoms share two pairs of electrons & Triple bond is a chemical bond formed when atoms share 3 pairs of element .
covalent bonding
Covalent. There is no electronegativity difference between two atoms of the same element.
You're referring to a "nonpolar" bond. This occurs when both atoms have the same electronegativity. In any case of an element bonded with the same element, the bond is nonpolar.
covalent bond
Positive Ions
all matter is made up of units called atoms atoms can bond to and un-bond from each other all atoms of the same element are identical. atoms can form bonds during chemical reactions the basic unit of matter is an atom atoms will have identical atomic mass if they are the same element
A diatomic molecule is a molecule formed by the covalent bonding between atoms of the same element. Examples include H2, O2, Cl2.
When an atom gives up one or more electrons to another atom, an ionic bond is formed. Atoms are the basic unit of a chemical element.
A covalent bond is formed between two atoms with similar electronegativity.
The answer depends on how the bond is formed. The bond between two atoms could be an ionic bond if the electrons are transferred between the two atoms or the bond could be covalent if the electrons are shared between the two atoms.
Have you heard of the term "bond energy"? The bonds between atoms of the same element, and atoms of different elements all contain a certain amount of energy. When a bond is broken, energy is released. When a bond is formed, energy is required. For example, two Carbon atoms bonding (they can have a C-C single bond, a C=C double bond, or a triple bond).
