If you're talking about a diatomic COMPOUND, it is simply a compound composed of two atoms or elements. [Di=two :) ] But if you're talking about a diatomic MOLECULE, it is a molecule consisting of 2 atoms, but only 2 non-metals since a molecule is a neutral group of atoms joined together by covalent bonds. There shouldn't be a metal, since that is not a molecule; a metal plus a non metal forms an ionic bond which isn't neutral because it has a certain charge.

What is The smallest complete unit of a compound or diatomic gas?
The smallest complete unit of a compound or diatomic gas is a molecule. A molecule consists of two or more atoms bonded together. For diatomic gases like oxygen (O2) or nitrogen (N2), the molecule is composed of two atoms of the same element.

Is hydrogen a compound?
No. Hydrogen is not a compound.Related Information:A compound molecule consists of two or more differentelements.An elemental hydrogen molecule is diatomic, composed of two atoms of the same element, so is not a compound, even though it is bonded like some compounds.Naturally occurring hydrogen consists of diatomic molecules of hydrogen. The outer shell electron, the only electron, of each of two hydrogen atoms tends to form one covalently bonded molecule, H2.
Is He an diatomic compound?

How is oxygen a compound?
oxygen is not a compound it is a diatomic (that means the element comes in pairs)
Is nitrogen gas a element or a compound?
Nitrogen gas consists of molecules, each of which consists of two atoms of the element nitrogen. Since a compound has to consist of two or more elements nitrogen cannot be a compound, by definition.
What is The smallest complete unit of a compound or diatomic gas?

Is a diatomic molecule of one element a compound?
No its not. there is Diatomic Molecule compounds which consisting of two different element like: CO, NO, MgO, HCl,and HF. however, diatomic molecules are elements that are found in pairs such as: O2,N2,F2,Cl2.
Is carbon a element or a compound or a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Compound it cant be an element because its a diatomic or polyatomic cnt remember which one but either way its not an element its a compound. Compound it cant be an element because its a diatomic or polyatomic cnt remember which one but either way its not an element its a compound.
