It`s Diatomic
certain elements naturally occur in pairs, called diatomic elements: Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and i believe Iodine. Ie. in nature, you never see a nitrogen by itself.
The elements that form diatomic molecules are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. The chemical formula for each diatomic molecule is H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2, and At2.
No. There is no such thing as a diatomic atom. A diatomic molecule is a molecule that contains two atoms. The number of lone pairs depends on what atoms are bonded.
diatomic
N2 it means that the nitrogen molecule is diatomic ( that's it comes in pairs) this is the same with oxygen and many other elements
No its not. there is Diatomic Molecule compounds which consisting of two different element like: CO, NO, MgO, HCl,and HF. however, diatomic molecules are elements that are found in pairs such as: O2,N2,F2,Cl2.
Diatomic elements are elements which consist of two atoms of the same element joined together in their normal elemental state. The diatomic elements are: hydrogen oxygen nitrogen and the halogens (chlorine, bromine, etc.)
They belong to different families but HALOGENS family consists of diatomic molecular elements.
Yes, Diatomic elements are usually stable.
H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2 are all diatomic elements.
No, (solid) metal elements are not diatomic
