Note that there is only one capitalized letter in the formula, s o it is an element
What else can I help you with?
Which is made of at least two different types of atoms element molecule compoundmatter?
The answer could be molecule, compound and matter depending on the atoms of various element.
When two atoms of the element oxygen combine to form a molecule of oxygen the result is not a compound Why?
When two atoms of the element oxygen combine to form a molecule of oxygen (O2), it is still considered a pure substance because both atoms are of the same element. A compound is formed when atoms of different elements bond together. In this case, O2 is a molecule of an element rather than a compound because it consists of two atoms of the same element bonded together.
Is oxygen is element or compound?
Oxygen is both a compound and an element. In nature, Oxygen forms bonds with itself to form a compound consisting of two elemental oxygen atoms to form one compounded oxygen molecule. This is O2.
Is N an element or a compound?
Nitrogen naturally occurs as a diatomic molecule (N2). Nitrogen, by itself, is an element.
Is ammonia an element or a compound explain?
it is a compound , it is made up of nitrogen and hydrogen with the formula NH3
What is the only element which is a tetratomic molecule?
Phosphorus(P4) is the only element which is a tetratomic molecule.
What is the name of the compound P4?
This molecule of phosphorus can be called a tetrahedron of phosphorus.
Is nitrogen a compound or molecule?
Nitrogen is an element that is usually found alone as the N2 molecule. It is not a compound.
Is PH3 an element or molecule?
This is a compound, a molecule.
A molecule of a compound?
Most molecules are compounds but not all. Some molecules such as O2 and P4 are elements.
How many atoms are there in the molecule of phospherous P4?
The answer is four. The molecular formula of any element or compund gives you the number of atoms of each element in a molecule. For phosphorus the most common form is P4 . The molecules are tetrahedral with a P atom at each apex.
Is P4 an ionic compound?
No, P4 is not an ionic compound. P4 refers to phosphorus in its elemental form, which exists as a covalent molecular compound composed of phosphorus atoms bonded covalently to each other. Ionic compounds are composed of ions held together by electrostatic forces.
What is the difference between a compound and element molecule?
An element is any substance that consists of only one type of atom, that is all atoms have the same number of protons. A compound is a substance that has two or more elements chemically bonded together either covalently or ionically in a fixed ratio. A molecule is a particle that consists of two or more atoms covalently bonded together. A molecule can have atoms of a single element (such as O2 or P4) in which case it is an element or it can consist of multiple elements (such as CO2 or H2SO4) in which case it is considered a compound.
Is sulfur a molecule or compound?
Sulfur is an element, not a molecule or compound. It is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16.
Is a molecule an element or compound?
A molecule can be either an element or a compound, depending on its composition. If a molecule consists of only one type of atom, it is an element. If a molecule is made up of two or more different types of atoms bonded together, it is a compound.
Is hydrogen an element compound or molecule?
It's an element
What is and element and a compound called?
Molecule
