Why does oxygen exist as a diatonic molecule and not simply the O atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
Brrunno [24]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Oxygen exists as a diatomic molecule in nature when it is not combined with any other element. It forms O2 molecule because it is stable when it is uncombined. It has the lowest energy level when uncombined. ... By achieving octet configuration, the diatomic elements become more stable compared to the single atom.

Explanation:

The half of the moon facing the sun is always lit, but the different phases happen because:
zvonat [6]

Answer:

we only see parts of the lit side as the moon goes around the earth

Explanation:

Unlike the sun, the moon orbits the Earth. This is the reason why we see the <em>different phases of the moon.</em> The reflection of the moon is being illuminated back to us with the help of the sun. So, as the moon circles the Earth, we only see parts of the lit side. Such changes helps us see the moon in different phases such as<em> </em>the <em>Third Quarter, Crescent, New Moon, Full Moon, etc.</em>

For example, during "Full Moon," <em>the moon's entire face is lit up by the sun</em>. Thus, we see the entire moon's lit portion.

Thus, this explains the answer.
