Answer:
Explanation:
Heteroatomic molecules are compounds meaning they contain more than 1 element. A homoatomic molecule: 'homo' means same. So H2, O2, O3, N2, etc. are all homoatomic. 'Hetero' means different or other, so anything with more than one type of atom is heteroatomic.

A molecule of carbon dioxide has the formula CO2, which means that there are one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms in each molecule. Each oxygen atom forms a double bond with the central carbon atom. Its structural formula is O=C=O, and the molecule is linear.
