Is iodine a element mixture or compound?
Iodine, I2 is an diatomic element, with two atoms in the molecule.
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.
When two atoms of the element oxygen combine to form a molecule of oxygen the result is not a compound Why?
This is because a compound is a molecule of two different elements.
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.
Is N an element or a compound?
Nitrogen naturally occurs as a diatomic molecule (N2). Nitrogen, by itself, is an element.
What is the only element which is a tetratomic molecule?
Phosphorus(P4) is the only element which is a tetratomic molecule.
Is P4 an ionic compound?
P4 is not a compound, it is an allotrope (form of a pure element) of phosphorus consisting of covalently bonded atoms.
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.
Is hydrogen a molecule and or compound or element?
Hydrogen is an element. Also a molecule.
Is NH3 an element compound or molecule?
NH3 is molecule of ammoia. It is not element
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.
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 a molecule an element or compound?
It could be either. For example, a molecule of O2 or Cl2 is an element, but one of CH4 or NO3 is a compound.
Is hydrogen an element compound or molecule?
It's an element
