Polüatoomiline

Polüatoomiline is a term used in chemistry to describe a molecule composed of more than two atoms. This stands in contrast to diatomic molecules, which consist of exactly two atoms. Polüatoomiline molecules can vary significantly in complexity, ranging from simple triatomic structures like water (H2O) to highly intricate macromolecules found in biological systems. The properties of a polüatoomiline substance are determined by the types of atoms present, their number, and the way they are bonded together.

Common examples of polüatoomiline molecules include carbon dioxide (CO2), ozone (O3), and methane (CH4). The arrangement of atoms in polüatoomiline molecules can lead to different isomers, which are compounds with the same molecular formula but different structural formulas and, consequently, different properties. The study of polüatoomiline molecules is fundamental to understanding chemical reactions, molecular structure, and the behavior of matter. The diversity in their composition and structure allows for a vast array of chemical compounds with unique characteristics and applications across various scientific and industrial fields.
