Is lead a mono atomic element?

Yes it is. Lead is never found as Pb2 the diatomic condition. This is usually found in the halogens; nonmetals.


What is helium's most common diatomic bond?

None. Helium has completely filled orbitals it is stable and chemically inert (non-reactive). So, helium exists as mono atomic and not as a diatomic species.


Is chlorine mono- atomic at some temperatures and diatomic in others?

It's diatomic at room temperature. I have never heard of actual monoatomic chlorine, maybe some physicist created some in a lab at incredibly low or high temperatures, but I would say it is diatomic for all intents and purposes.


Is hydrogen mono atomic?

Yes, hydrogen is a diatomic molecule under normal conditions, meaning it exists as H2, containing two hydrogen atoms bonded together. However, in certain conditions, hydrogen atoms can exist as monatomic species, such as in the form of atomic hydrogen.


Is sodium mono isotopic element?

Sodium is not mono isotopic. It has two isotopes. Namely they are sodium-23 and sodium-24.


Are all noble gases mono atomic?

Yes. all are mono atomic


Is sodium diatomic?

Sodium is not diatomic. Sodium is a metallic element that typically exists as individual atoms in its elemental form. Diatomic molecules, on the other hand, are molecules made up of two atoms of the same element bonded together. An example of a diatomic molecule is diatomic oxygen (O2).


Why is the specific heat of poly atomic gases is higher than that of mono atomic gases?

Diatomic gases can absorb heat to increase their vibrational and rotational energy in addition to their translational energy. Monatomic gases have no bonds to vibrate or rotate.


What are the examples of mono atomic elements?

All of the metallic elements and the noble gases are normally mono-atomic.


Why helium exist in mono atomic state?

Helium has completely filled orbitals, is stable and is not reactive. Hence they exist as mono atomic
