For any diatomic gas like oxygen its written like this O2.They are represented by the total number of atoms that are present in a molecule. The total number of atoms present are written as subscript beside the symbol of that particular atom. Say for sulphuric acid its H2SO4.

Do diatomic elements have nonpolar covalent bonds?
Diatomic molecules have non-polar covalent bonds and are non-polar molecules
What family of elements most often exist as diatomic molecules?
The Halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) exist as diatomic molecules, as do hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen.
Which of the following elements exists as diatomic molecules?
Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, Oxygen, Nitrogen and Hydrogen all exist as diatomic molecules.
what is called a molecule having one atom in it?
Monatomic compounds are composed of single atoms and there are no chemical bonds between these atoms. Diatomic compounds are composed of molecules containing two atoms. ... The main difference between monatomic and diatomic compounds is the number of atoms present in those compounds.
What element made of molecules with two atoms?
A molecule made of two identical atoms is called diatomic.Five diatomic elements exist as gases at room temperature (25oC/298K) and atmospheric pressure:Hydrogen, H2Nitrogen, N2Oxygen, O2Fluorine, F2Chlorine, Cl2One diatomic element is a liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure:Bromine, Br2One diatomic element is a solid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure:Iodine, I2
How do we clasiffy molecular element?
Several chemical elements have diatomic molecules: halogens, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen.
Where in the periodic table would you find the elements that go round in pairs and form diatomic molecules?
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.
What are elements found in Natural as diatomic molecules called?
diotomic elements
Are all the molecules compounds?
No. Generally molecules are representative for a chemical compound. But some molecules contain one chemical element; examples are diatomic molecules of gases as H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2. And sometimes other elements.
Do diatomic elements have nonpolar covalent bonds?
Diatomic molecules have non-polar covalent bonds and are non-polar molecules
What family of elements most often exist as diatomic molecules?
The Halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) exist as diatomic molecules, as do hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen.
How many elements occur naturally as diatomic molecules?
7
Are diatomic elements stable when in molecular form?
Yes, these chemical elements are stable.
How many elements are made up diatomic molecules?
Only Two
Is it possible to get an element that is also a compound?
Yes because some elements exist in their natural state as diatomic molecules, and are thus both elements and molecules.See the Related Questions for a complete list of the diatomic molecules.
Which of the following elements exists as diatomic molecules?
Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, Oxygen, Nitrogen and Hydrogen all exist as diatomic molecules.
What are the oxygen elements?
Oxygen is a chemical element; the molecule is diatomic.
