F (Fluorine) is in column (group/family) VIIA, or the "halogens". When you see the halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) in combination with a metal, each halogen atom present will carry a -1 charge. We can see that the atom has no charge, so the metal must cancel out the negative charges brought by the two fluorine atoms.
(Charge on m) + 2*(charge on fluorine) = 0
(Charge on m) + 2*(-1) = 0
(Charge on m) - 2 = 0
Charge on m ion = +2
Answer:
The central atom has 3 electron domains.
Explanation:
According to the Valence Shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR) put forward by Gillespie and Nyholm in 1957, the shape of a molecule is determined by repulsion between all the electron pairs (electron domains) present in the valence shell.
The electron pairs or electron domains are known to position themselves as far apart in space as possible in order to minimize repulsions.
Hence, when the central atom of a molecule contains three electron domains, they are positioned at an angle of 120° from each other to minimize repulsions. Hence the answer.

Answer:
Volume of NCl3 is 3L
Explanation:
Avogadro states: All gases at the same volume under temperature and pressure constant have the same number of moles.
The chemical equation is:
3Cl2(g) + N2(g) → 2NCl3(g)
Where 3 moles of chlorine reacts with 1 mole of nitrogen to produce 2 moles of NCl3.
But using Avogadros law we can say:
3L of chlorine and 1L of nitrogen produce 2L of Nitrogen trichloride.
3L of chlorine and 1L of nitrogen: 4L (The stoichiometric mixture)
That means, volume of NCl3 produced is 3L
