Explain why sodium is only found in compounds in nature?
Sodium is a highly reactive element. It is unstable to exist on its own and will react whenever it is capable, which is very likely in nature.
Does nitrogen exist as a diatomic molecule?
Yes, this is essentially correct. We don't find chlorine in nature in an uncombined state, but when we make chlorine gas, it appears as the diatomic molecule Cl2.
How do you account for the observed solubility of naphthalene and sodium chloride in water and in ether based on the nature of the bonds that exist in them?
The reason why naphthalene can be dissolve in ether and not in water is because of their polarity. Naphthalene is a non-polar molecule. so it can only dissolve with a non-polar molecule.
Is oxygen monatomic or diatomic?
Yes because oxygen is always found in nature in pairs.
Does Aluminum exist by itself or does it have to be in a compound or molecule?
Aluminum is an element, composed of molecules, is on the periodic chart, does exist by itself AND can be combined to form compounds.
Are noble gasses more likely to exist in nature as a molecule or single atom?
because they have more gas in them

Why does hydrogen molecule does not exist?
Hydrogen molecules do exist (as H2); this is how hydrogen is found in nature.
Is C13 H18 O2 one molecule?
i believe h18 cannot exist without an 02 molecule in nature
Which atom exists as a diatomic molecule in nature?
Numerous elements exist as diatomic molecules in nature, including hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, and iodine.
A molecule is the smallest complete unit of?
A molecule is the combination of two or more atoms which may exist free in nature. Does this mean that one atom of heliom is NOT a molecule? yes it is not a molecule it is an atom that exists free as a molecule so the term monoatomic molecule is used for noble gase but not only molecule.
Does CuCl2 exist as a molecule?
no
What are some examples of centrifugal force as present in nature?
Centrifugal forces at present do not exist in nature. However, the opposite of centrifugal forces, centripetal forces, do exist. Centrifugal forces are used only to explain that centripetal forces need an opposite force to act against it.
Why is H-O-C-C equals O a molecule likely to exist?
H-O-C-C=O is a molecule known as formic acid. It is likely to exist because it follows the octet rule, with each atom having a full outer shell of electrons. The oxygen atom can form a double bond with the carbon atom, allowing for stability and minimizing the overall energy of the molecule.
Is Na exist as a polyatomic molecule?
No.
Does NO2 exist as a molecule?
Yes
What molecule exist independently?
element
