Does a diatomic atom contain two lone pairs?

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.


What is a molecule bonding?

Just as the valence electrons of atoms occupy atomic orbitals (AO), the shared electron pairs of covalently bonded atoms may be thought of as occupying molecular orbitals (MO).


What affects shape of a molecule?

The molecule's function and chemical and physical properties


What does the subsctipt number 2 following the H represent?

It is a subscript representing atoms in a molecule. In this example Hydrogen is diatomic, which means it naturally forms in pairs. So it is 2 atoms of hydrogen.


Which configurations would form a bent molecule?

A molecule with two bound atoms and one line electron pair


What do dot diagrams represent?

Lewis dot diagrams represent the bonds between the atoms of a molecule, as well as any lone pair of electrons. For instance, in the O2 molecule, there is a double bond between the two oxygen atoms, but there are also two lone pairs of electrons per oxygen atom.

Pairs of atoms that share equal number of electrons?

Molecules covalently bonded.


What factors affect the shape of the molecule?

The factors affecting the shape of the molecules are the bonded e and the lone pairs of electrons


What is the Molecular geometry of CO?

This is a linear molecule.


Molecular geometry of XeO2F2?

see-saw shaped. Note that the MOLECULAR structure is only concerned about the BONDED atoms, not the lone pairs. Although we take the lone pairs repulsive effects into consideration, we do not include them when DESCRIBING the shape of the bonded atoms
