2. F is non-metal, because it has seven electrons (more that 3)
3.It <span>fills its shell by gaining one electron, because it is easier to gain 1 e⁻ than to loose 7 e⁻.
4. It </span><span>becomes a negatively charged ion, because atom of F is neutral, it has "0" charge, and it takes one negatively charged electron(-1). (0 +(-1)= -1)</span>

Answer:

is a nonmetal

fills its shell by gaining one electron

becomes a negatively charged ion

Explanation:

Fluorine is in group 7 of the periodic table and in period 2. Elements found in group 7 are mostly non metals. This non metals mostly gain electron during bonding with other atom of elements.

Fluorine fills it outer shell by gaining a single electron. The valency electron of Fluorine is 7 . It can easily attract 1 electron to it self to attain the octet rule. This is why most non metal in group 7 are very reactive .

Fluorine easily become an anion as they gain single electron. The charge become negatively charged. It gains single charge and possess a charge of -1.

The electronic configuration is 2 7. The atomic number of Florine is 9.

A cylinder contains nitrogen and oxygen under 4.015 atm pressure. The partial pressure of N2 is 2.907 atm. What is the partial p
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: The partial pressure of the water vapor is 1.108 atm

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of individual pressures exerted by the constituent gases.

p_{total}=p_A+p_B

Thus p_{total}=p_{N_2}+p_{H_2O}

Given: p_{total} =4.015 atm

p_{N_2}= 2.907 atm

p_{H_2O} = ?

Thus 4.015=2.907+p_{H_2O}

p_{H_2O}=1.108atm

Thus the partial pressure of the water vapor is 1.108 atm
