Is oxygen a chemical compound

Answer 1

Compounds are molecules of more than one kind of atom.

Oxygen is a diatomic molecule, therefore not a compound.

Further, organic compounds are molecules that contain carbon covalently bonded to another element. Typically, organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen bonded together.

Answer 2

No, oxygen on its own is not a chemical compound. It is an element with the symbol O and atomic number 8. However, oxygen can combine with other elements to form chemical compounds, such as water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2).

Answer 3

Oxygen is an element represented by the letter "O".

Oxygen occurs in the atmosphere as the compound or molecule called oxygen (O2) consisting of two oxygen atoms, and as the compound or molecule called ozone (O3) consisting of three oxygen atoms.

In addition, the oxygen atom is a component of many other compounds such as water, rust (iron oxide), etc.

Answer 4

No, oxygen is a chemical element.

A chemical compound is a pure chemical substance consisting of two or more different chemical elements.

Answer 5

No, it must contain the element carbon to be organic!!

Answer 6

Neither - it is an element - it is not a compound at all!

It does, however, appear in both organic and in-organic compounds.

Answer 7

No. Organic molecules contain at least one carbon atom.

Answer 8

Oxygen is an element, not a compound (compound=2/more different elements) and it is not organic. organic=containing carbon

Answer 9

no

Answer 10

yes
