we actually don't know if astatine is diatomic, because it's so rare, there's less than a teaspoon of it on the entire earth. isn't that crazy? so based on its spot in the periodic table, you might assume it's diatomic, but because scientists can't get enough of it to study it, we can't actually be sure. so that's why it isn't on the list. also, because it's so rare, i bet you'll never run into a reaction that uses astatine.
I can't believe how much I've learned in just a few days of finding your channel. Your videos are giving me so much hope that I will pass my chemistry class. I'm so glad I found this channel.
Actually, I think you'll find that Bromine and Iodine are NOT gas at room temperature. Br is liquid, and I is a solid. Despite this, great video. Keep up the good work.
Your such a good teacher. I love to use your videos to revise my lessons, your my private teacher. I think you are really talented the way you explain things. You make everything look so comprehensible. Thank you very very much for these educational videos.
i have my igcse's next month and i couldnt understand anything science related until today. ur an amazing teacher and i life saver... i wish u were my teacher!!!! thanks for all the effort you put in into releasing this super helpfull videos!!!
Another great way to remember diatomic elements is GEN-INE. Anything ending ending in Gen or Ine is Diatomic! (though you do have to remember that diatomic astatine is quite rare but does exist although it is not normally classified diatomic). Also tyler, you said that all diatomic elements are gases at room temperature but isn't bromine liquid at room temperature and Iodine is Solid at room temperature? Thanks in advance!
I remember them as the CHINFOB mob c - chlorine h - hydrogen i - iodine n - nitrogen f - fluorine o - oxygen b - bromine and mob just to make it more catchy.
I feel like it might be beneficial to mention (in a simpler way) that the reason the 6 elements that form a 7 on the periodic table (N, O, F, Cl, I, Br) are diatomic while other elements with the same valence electrons aren't, is because of the high electronegativity of the these elements. H is because it has so few electrons that its weak electronegativity is irrelevant.
Have - (H2)hydrogen No -(N2) nitrogen Fear - (F2) fluorine Of -(O2)oxygen Ice - (I2) iodine Cold - (Cl2) chlorine Bear - (Br2)Bromine My tutoring center made this up. Really cool way to memorize the diatomic elements :)

Hey everyone, I'm here to help. If you have any questions or just want to learn more, click on the link in the description above. It'll take you to a page where you can ask me questions.
Your videos are so helpful! I always get disappointed if I cant find something specific in your videos and I have to watch someone elses. Do you have one on Balancing chemical equations???
I just want to thank you. I’m lost during class but you make it easier for me to understand it. My teacher goes so fast during lecture i just feel like crying because i don’t get it. Thank you again for doing this videos
Im sorry if this is a stupid question, im trying to learn more about chemistry and your videos and explainations are amazing. The question is about the pairing process of the diatomic elements. You said that they were 'unhappy' so they share eachothers electrons. You gave for an example oxygen which has 6 electrons, so they can easely have 8 if they share. But what about Hydrogen, it only has 1 electron, a pair would still not have 8 electrons.
Thank you so so sooo much your video's are the reason I'm going to pass chemistry! And I use the phrase I CLayed BRicks For Our New Home. Thanks again!
Dear Tyler, I'm a Dutch student on a bilingual school. I really appreciate your videos! At this moment I'm learning how to write equations with the combustion of a substance. Would you please make a video with your explanation. Kind Regards, E
Instead of Br-I-N-Cl-H-O-F I was taught H-O-F-Br-I-N-Cl lol. Also to prevent confusion in the phrase option, instead of Cold (can be confused with Carbon), You can say "Have No Fear Of Important Clapping Bears" Because C word starts with Cl so you know its chlorine
Thanks for the video Tyler;)I have been searching for this all over the Internet and I finally found it here!thanks again and I liked your other videos too mate!
the first electron shell can only hold 2 electrons and then it is full but when u get a atom that has 3 or more electrons then you need a second shell which is only full when it has 8 electrons so if you have an atom that has 10 electrons the outermost shell is going to be full because the first shell holds two of them and the second shell holds eight.( after the first shell only holding 2 electrons all additional electron shells hold 8 electrons) hope this helps :)
Hey Tyler DeWitt, no disrespect meant at all as I'm sure you're correct, but in this video you stated all the diatomic elements were gases at RTP. Is this true? I was in the state of believing that Bromine and Mercury were both liquids at RTP; obvious Mercury is not a diatomic element, but Bromine certainly is. Was this just a way of making teaching this easier? As I understand bromine easily changes between gas and liquid.
So when Oxygen is in a compound, such as magnesium oxide how many oxygen atoms are in each molecule. If it's one Oxygen atom hoe does that work then cause I thought oxygen always came in pairs?
what if you are solving a balance equation and supposing its titanium reacts with chlorine is it going to be Ti+Cl which will be TiCl4 or it will be Ti+Cl2 which will be TiCl2
you can see the shape of a 7 (cuz 7 diatomic elements) on the periodic table from nitrogen - > fluorine -> iodine excludes hydrogen but hydrogen is a special lil' boy

Dear Tyler,
I'm a Dutch student on a bilingual school. I really appreciate your videos! At this moment I'm learning how to write equations with the combustion of a substance. Would you please make a video with your explanation.
Kind Regards, E
My prof never went over this making writing molecular, Ionic, and net ionic equation very confusing! Thanks!

Wonderful, thank you! Love the comments with creative acronym suggestions.
Iodine is solid at room temp I believe. Great content!
U r the best
I wish that u should be my science teacher
We just remember "Hydrogen" and the rest form a 7-shape on the periodic table
thanks for the help Tyler

And Iodine is a solid.
I had the same question. If Iodine and Bromine are gasses, then why are the listed as liquid and solid on the periodic table of elements.
Iodine is a solid at STP though it will happily slowly sublimate.
Thanks for your time buddy, you are awesome !
You are a superb explainer.

Excellent explanation!

outstanding video.

I just love ur vedio its really amazing very easy to understand
U spelled video wrong. No wonder your an indian
Amazing, thank you! This is so helpful. I finally understand what diatomic elements are :)
Thankyou for making me understand I appreciate it
nice shot, good explanaton thanks bro...
Nice Trick Teacher😊thanks
Nice
Thanks
❤️ From india
I see that you pair the diatomic gasses with themselves such as Cl & Cl ; O & O ; N & N. What does it look like if you were to pair H&O together?

Thanks man, helps a lot.
thanks for the video, i hove the acronym !!
writing physics exams tomorrow all your videos are so helpful
And in what way is diatomic elements relative to physics considering physics is just applied math and chemistry is to do with elements.
ikr i was thinking the same thing
what if you are solving a balance equation and supposing its titanium reacts with chlorine is it going to be Ti+Cl which will be TiCl4 or it will be Ti+Cl2 which will be TiCl2
GOD BLESS YOU TYLER
I wish you were my Chem professor.
I think BrINClHOF is easier to remember. It’s also fun to say
thank you teacher God bless you
Very, Very helpful! Thank you.
So, why only these elements are diatomic, and e.g. sulfur isn't (why doesn't it create a double bond with another S, just like O does ?) ?
6:45 hoping you've got your answer 4 years later
Have you even met Dr. BrINClHOF? He's a pretty cool guy.
thank you very very much!!!!!!
