The prefix 'di' means two. Hence two atoms make up a diatomic molecule.

Answer:
six noble gases
Here are five of the six noble gases: helium, neon, argon, kypton and xeon. They're all colourless and transparent. Krypton and xeon form compounds only with difficulty. Helium, neon and argon don't form compounds at all.
Answer:
Collisions between gas particles are elastic; there is no net gain or loss of kinetic energy.
Explanation:
When a gas is paced in a container, the molecules of the gas have little or no intermolecular interaction between them. There is a lot of space between the molecules of the gas.
The gas molecules move at very high speed and collide with each other and with the walls of container.
The collision of these particles with each other is perfectly elastic hence the kinetic energy of the colliding gas particles do not change.
