The chemical substances found in the atmosphere exist as gases.
this answer can have several answers, the most likely answer to this question is:
many elements are found as parts of larger molecules, pure elements are difficult to find.
gas
Uranium, element number 92, is the largest naturally occurring element. However, francium, 87, and astatine, 85, along with any element with an atomic number larger than 92 are not found in nature. They are produced in the laboratory. If they do occur naturally they are in exceedingly small quantities. So to answer your question "How many elements can't be found in nature?" about 16 or a few more.
The millions of compounds that exist are made from approximately 115 elements!
About 28 elements were discovered in the laboratory. But after the man made preparation some elements were discovered also in nature in very extremely traces: Pm, Tc, Pu, Np, Am, Cm, Bk.
Bromine and Mercury. However, they are not found in the elemental state but in compounds. In addition Gallium, Francium and Cesium are extremely cose to being liquid in their elemental form at normal temperatures and pressures.
117 know ones (some are yet to be discovered)
There are currently 118 elements, ranging from #1 Hydrogen to #118 Ununoctium. Many of the transuranium elements (#93-#118) are synthetic, meaning that the only place they have been found is in a laboratory, thus do not exist in nature. Technetium (#43) and Promethium (#61) are also synthetic.
88 different elements exist in nature.
- many elements doesn't exist in pure form in the nature - many objects are made from alloys - many objects are mixture of compounds
Because they are highly reactive with many other elements.
Ok ok, look. You could just google it, but I will do it for you. 92 exist in nature, but many have already decayed. I am unsure how many are actually found in nature now. Today, both man made and natural, there are 118 elements.

There are variety of such elements. They have not been found on earth's surface.
There are a total of 118 elements known to exist on the periodic table.
well some of the nature elements are known as Fire, Water, Earth, and Air Another answer I think what you may mean is what elements (chemical elements - not those in the answer above) are found in an uncombined form in nature. Well, not many. Gold is one. Nitrogen gas, oxygen, all the inert gases are others
Out of the 112 elements known, 90 are found in nature and the rest (22 are man made).
There are about 118 different elements that are currently included in the Periodic Table. There have also been elements that have been found in nuclear and laboratories accelerators.
Many elements are found in nature in molecular form - two or more atoms (of the same type of element) are bonded together. Oxygen, for example, is most commonly found in its molecular form "O2" (two oxygen atoms chemically bonded together).
