Neon - it is a noble gas and does not even combine with itself
Many elements do not exist as diatomic molecules. Metals, like iron, copper, silver, lead, etc. Even some nonmetals, helium, argon, sulfur, etc. Only a few do exist as diatomic molecules, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, chlorine, fluorine, bromine, and maybe astatine.
Carbon. The others form bonds with their like element. Oxygen forms double-bonds, Nitrogen triple bonds, and Fluorine thru to Bromine form single bonds. Carbon would need to form quadruple bonds in order to obtain a stable octet (i.e. 8 valence electrons), which is known to be impossible.
There are 11 elements that exist naturally in a liquid state at room temperature and pressure. These elements are bromine, mercury, cesium, rubidium, francium, gallium, caesium, and four radioactive elements: francium, radium, and possibly actinium and plutonium.
Some gases that are elements include oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), hydrogen (H), helium (He), neon (Ne), and argon (Ar). These gases exist as individual atoms and are considered elements on the periodic table.
A compound is a substance that contains 2 or more different elements combined chemically. if you mean Ne, then no, because that is Neon (which is one element) But if you mean NE, then yes becaus, N is 1 atom, and E is another.
Neon (Ne) does not exist as a diatomic molecule. Fluorine (F), Chlorine (Cl), and Hydrogen (H) can form diatomic molecules (F2, Cl2, H2) due to their bonding characteristics, but Neon is a noble gas and exists as single atoms due to its stable electron configuration.
Noble gasses, from group 18: He Ne Ar Kr Xe Rn
A diatomic element exists as a molecule containing two of its atoms, such as chlorine (Cl2) and bromine (Br2). Elements that are not diatomic include monatomic elements (noble gases such as Ar, Ne) and triatomic elements (ozone, O3).

Monatomic compounds are composed of single atoms and there are no chemical bonds between these atoms. Diatomic compounds are composed of molecules containing two atoms. ... The main difference between monatomic and diatomic compounds is the number of atoms present in those compounds.
A molecule is a group of atoms bonded together. Hence, a molecule is only formed by 2 or more atoms. So, it could either be diatomic or polyatomic but not mono-atomic
Neon is an inert, or noble gas. As such, it isn't interested in combining with any other atoms, nor is it interested in hanging out with a like buddy in a diatomic molecule. Remember that the diatomic molecules are the elements that end in -gen (including the halogens). So no, neon is just a singular, fully occupied outer shell atom...just content to be by itself.

All of the noble gases are monatomic gases: helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn).All the other elements that are gases at room temperature are diatomic (H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2)
monoatomic is when a molecule is made up of only one kind of atom .Diatomic is when molecules are made up of two kinds of atoms. The answer is entirely incorrect ! For example the molecule of hydrogen H2 is made up of one kind of atom (say Hydrogen-1) and is NOT MONOATOMIC ! It is simply diatomic. The molecule of NO2 is made of two kinds of atoms but it is NOT DIATOMIC !. It is TRIATOMIC. The correct answer should be: The monoatomic molecule is a molecule that contains only one atom and is able to exist nonbonded to other neighboring species. Examples of monoatomoc molecules are atoms of He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe. The diatomic molecule is a molecule that is composed of TWO atoms (either the same or different) and is able to exist nonbonded to other neighboring species. Examples: H2, N2, NO, HCl. I think someone placed that previous answer to have 100% warranty for the discussion.

No, neon exists as a monatomic gas at standard temperature and pressure. It does not readily form diatomic molecules or other larger clusters like some other elements.
