Answer:

The chemical formula is CF_2O

Explanation:

To determine how the molecule will be conformed you need to have in mind the valence number of each element present:

  • F= -1
  • O= -2
  • C= +4

Now, as the only one positive, the C will be the central atom with a doble bond to the O and a single bond to each F.

In that way all atoms completed the octet and achive stability

What decides if an atom will be a cation or an anion?
JulijaS [17]

The loss or gain of electrons

Explanation:

The loss or gain of electrons determines if an atom will become a cation or anion.

A cation is a positively charge ion

An anion is a negatively charged ion.

In an atom, we have sub-atomic particles:

 Protons are the positively charged particles

 Electrons are negatively charged

  Neutrons carry no charges

Only electrons can be lost or gained in chemical processes that forms cations and anions.

When a neutral atom gains electron, it has more electrons than protons. This makes it negatively charged and we call it an anion.

When a neutral atom loses an electron, the number of protons is more. We call it a cation.
