Homoatomic Molecule:

A homoatomic molecule is a molecule consisting of atoms of the same element. examples are - oxygen (O2), hydrogen (H2), and nitrogen (N2). Homo atomic molecules are also called "Diatomic" molecules.

Heteroatomic Molecules:

Heteroatomic molecules are molecules that do not have the same atoms making up the molecule. Lithium is a different atom than fluoride, and lithium fluoride is a molecule. Therefore, it is a heteroatomic molecule.
