Answer:

F gains one electron.

Explanation:

Hello,

Due to the high electronegativity of the fluorine atom (approx 3.98), it tends to gain electrons rather than lose them. Now, as lithium has the following electron configuration:

1s^22s^1

It loses one electron that is gained by the fluorine to form lithium fluoride, LiF.

Best regards.

They don't share and both deal with only 1 electron.

Lithium gives away 1 electron.
F will receive that electron.

The chemical formula is LiF

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

F2 is the limiting reactant

27.6 grams of NaF is produced.

Explanation:

Balance the equation first.

2Na+ F2 ---> 2NaF

To find the limiting reactant, solve for how much NaF can be produced with Na and F2

12.5g F2 x (1 mole F2/ 38.00 grams F2)x (2 mole NaF/ 1 mole F2)

=0.658 moles NaF

16.2g Na x (1 mole Na/ 22.99 grams Na)x (2 mole NaF/ 2 mole Na)

=0.705 moles NaF

Since F2 produced the least NaF, F2 is the limiting reactant.

Now, to find how much NaF there is, use the moles solved above with F2 as the limiting reactant.

0.658 moles NaF x (41.99 grams NaF/ 1 mole NaF)= 27.6 moles NaF

27.6 moles of NaF would be theoretically produced.

How can we think differently about maintaining social wellness during this time of social distancing?
liberstina [14]

Answer: We can think differently about maintaining social wellness during this time of social distancing by (consider the following)

Explanation: If you are in a crowded space, try to keep 6 feet of space between yourself and others at all times, and wear a cloth face covering. Cloth face coverings are especially important in times when physical distancing is difficult.

Pay attention to any physical guides, such as tape markings on floors or signs on walls, directing attendees to remain at least 6 feet apart from each other in lines or at other times. Allow other people 6 feet of space when you pass by them in both indoor and outdoor settings.
