Elements such as Oxygen, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Fluorine, and Chlorine are diatomic. This means that two atoms of the same element bond to each other easily. Of the descriptions below, which describes why these elements are considered diatomic? A) The element hydrogen has 1 valence electron, therefore it will lose that electron and bond to another hydrogen atom to become stable, making it diatomic. B) The element oxygen has 6 valence electrons. Both atoms will share two of their valence electrons with each other, forming a covalent bond. This gives both atoms stability. C) The element Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. One atom will transfer an electron to the other atom, and their opposite charges will then attract the two atoms to each other. D) The element nitrogen has 7 valence electrons. Both atoms will share one of their valence electrons with each other, forming a covalent bond. This gives both atoms stability.
