To determine which elements are diatomic, we need to identify the elements that naturally form molecules consisting of two atoms. Here is the list of diatomic elements in their natural state:
- Hydrogen (H2)
- Nitrogen (N2)
- Oxygen (O2)
- Fluorine (F2)
- Chlorine (Cl2)
- Bromine (Br2)
- Iodine (I2)
Now, we will look for these elements in the provided periodic table and select all the correct locations where these elements appear.
The elements are found in the following locations:
- 1 (H)
- 7 (N)
- 8 (O)
- 9 (F)
- 17 (Cl)
- 35 (Br)
- 53 (I)
Let’s list these selections:
1. H (Hydrogen)
2. N (Nitrogen)
3. O (Oxygen)
4. F (Fluorine)
5. Cl (Chlorine)
6. Br (Bromine)
7. I (Iodine)
These entries are the locations where the diatomic elements can be found in the provided table.
