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).
No - there are many gases that contain more than one or two atoms. Some examples are: Carbon Dioxide: 3 atoms Acetylene: 4 atoms Methane: 5 atoms Ethylene: 6 atoms . . . and the list goes on. It is true though that as the more atoms a molecule consists of, the less likely it is to be a gas at a temperature we are familiar with. Pretty nearly all molecules can be gases if the pressure is low enough and the temperature is high enough (unless they decompose before they can be heated enough to make their vapor pressure exceed the ambient pressure).
chlorine, the other three are examples of noble gases
Gases that are made up of only two atoms that can be both of the same or of different elements. Hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, bromine, chlorine, iodine, and fluorine are seven common gases that exist as diatomic molecules of the same element. However there are still examples of diatomic molecules that are made up of non- identical atoms such as carbon monoxide, hydrogen chloride and nitric oxide.
Monatomic ideal gases consist of single atoms, while diatomic ideal gases consist of molecules with two atoms bonded together. Diatomic gases have higher heat capacities and are more complex in terms of their behavior compared to monatomic gases.

The oxidation state of lone elements and atoms in gases is zero. This is because they are in their elemental form and are not involved in any chemical bonding that would require a transfer of electrons.
i think the answer is yes because one user already said that oxygen wasnt so water is because i narrowed it down as an answer.

There are two hydrogen atoms in a hydrogen molecule. It is a diatomic molecule, meaning that there is two atoms in one molecule. Many gases are diatomic. In the Periodic Table there are 11 elements that are gases at Room Temperature: Hydrogen, Helium, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Neon, Chlorine, Argon, Krypton, Xenon and Radon. Of these gases, the ones that are diatomic are: Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine and Chlorine. One liquid and two solids are also diatomic, the liquid: Bromine, the solids: Iodine and Astatine.

A molecule made of two identical atoms is called diatomic.Five diatomic elements exist as gases at room temperature (25oC/298K) and atmospheric pressure:Hydrogen, H2Nitrogen, N2Oxygen, O2Fluorine, F2Chlorine, Cl2One diatomic element is a liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure:Bromine, Br2One diatomic element is a solid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure:Iodine, I2

Noble gases have full outer electron shells, thus have no 'desire' to combine with anything, even its "brothers."Noble Gases are not diatomic.
