  • Understanding Molecular Oxygen (O₂): An Element with Multiple Atoms
    The gas in the air that is an element with more than one atom per molecule is oxygen (O₂) .

    Here's why:

    * Oxygen is an element: It's a pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances.

    * Diatomic molecule: Oxygen exists naturally as a diatomic molecule, meaning two oxygen atoms bond together to form a single molecule (O₂).
