Argon is a monoatomic gas, meaning it exists as individual atoms in its natural state.
Yes. Argon is chemically inert due to the presence of completely filled orbitals. So it exists as a monoatomic species.
Argon gas is considered a monoatomic gas because its molecules consist of single atoms (argon atoms) that do not bond to form diatomic molecules like oxygen or nitrogen do. This means argon only exists as individual atoms in its gaseous state, whereas diatomic gases exist as pairs of atoms bonded together.
No. argon is a monoatomic element. It does not combine with other elements or with itself.
Argon is a noble gas, and is present as discrete atoms . this is called monoatomic
monoatomic is when a molecule is made up of only one kind of atom .Diatomic is when molecules are made up of two kinds of atoms. The answer is entirely incorrect ! For example the molecule of hydrogen H2 is made up of one kind of atom (say Hydrogen-1) and is NOT MONOATOMIC ! It is simply diatomic. The molecule of NO2 is made of two kinds of atoms but it is NOT DIATOMIC !. It is TRIATOMIC. The correct answer should be: The monoatomic molecule is a molecule that contains only one atom and is able to exist nonbonded to other neighboring species. Examples of monoatomoc molecules are atoms of He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe. The diatomic molecule is a molecule that is composed of TWO atoms (either the same or different) and is able to exist nonbonded to other neighboring species. Examples: H2, N2, NO, HCl. I think someone placed that previous answer to have 100% warranty for the discussion.

Argon is a noble gas with a complete valence electron shell, which makes it chemically inert and stable as a single atom, or monoatomic. In contrast, nitrogen has five electrons in its outer shell and needs to share three electrons with another nitrogen atom to achieve stability, resulting in the formation of diatomic nitrogen (Nā) molecules. This difference in electron configuration and bonding behavior explains why argon exists as monoatomic while nitrogen exists as diatomic.
Helium is monoatomic.
No. argon is a monoatomic element. It does not combine with other elements or with itself.
No, arsenic is not diatomic. Arsenic is a metalloid element with the chemical symbol As.
Sodium does not exist as molecules in the room temperature and pressure because it is a metal. Although it forms diatomic 'molecules' in gaseous phase at very high temperatures.
Gold has one stable isotope and many radioactive ones.

Oxygen has a diatomic molecule and ozone a triatomic molecule.But also monoatomic oxygen exist.
Diatomic gas has a higher specific heat compared to monoatomic gas due to the additional degrees of freedom associated with the rotational motion of diatomic molecules. This allows diatomic gases to store more energy as heat per unit mass without a large temperature increase.
