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.

Calculate the no. of each atoms presents in 10 grams of calcium carbonate.
raketka [301]

Molar Mass of Calcium carbonate:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto CaCO_3

\\ \sf\longmapsto 40u+12u+3(16u)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 52u+48u

\\ \sf\longmapsto 100u

\\ \sf\longmapsto 100g/mol

  • Given Mass=10g

\boxed{\sf No\:of\;moles=\dfrac{Given\:Mass}{Molar\:Mass}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\;moles=\dfrac{10}{100}

\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\:moles=0.1mol

Now

\boxed{\sf No\:of\:molecules=No\;of\:moles\times Avagadro\: No}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.1\times 6.023\times 10^{23}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 6.023\times 10^{22}molecules

I NEED HELP FAST!!!!! Can you tell me about the location of electrons in atoms and how energy affects their location??? I have a
Art [367]
Their locations can vary depending on the molecule they are associated with but they are usually in a "cloud " that is on the outside of an atom/molecule and if the atom is unstable the  electrons tend to be located farther away from the atom.

Hydrogen bonds are in the family of Van der Waals forces. They are weaker than ionic and covalent bonds but they cause interesti
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The answer is B. Van der Waals forces are weaker than ionic and covalent bonds.

Explanation:

In general, if we arrange these molecular forces from the strongest to weakest, it would be like this:

Covalent bonds > Ionic bonds > Hydrogen bonds > Dipole-Dipole Interactions > Van der Waals forces

Covalent bonds are known to have the strongest and most stable bonds since they go deep and into the inter-molecular state. A diamond is an example of a compound with this characteristic bond.

Ionic bonds are the next strongest molecular bond following covalent bonds. This is due to the protons and electrons causing an electro-static force which results to the strong bonds. An example would be Sodium Chloride (NaCl), which when separated is Na⁺ and Cl⁻.

Van der Waals forces, also known as Dispersion forces, are the weakest type of molecular bonds. They are only formed through residual molecular attractions when molecules pass by each other. It doesn't even last long due to the uneven electron dispersion. It can be made stronger by adding more electrons in the molecule. This kind of molecular bonds appear in non-polar molecules such as carbon dioxide.

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Consider n2 (g) + 3h2 (g) →→ 2nh3 (g). what is the mass of nitrogen gas required to react with 0.129 g h2?
Flura [38]
The given chemical reaction given above is already balanced such that the number of atoms in the left hand side of the equation is equal to that of the right hand side. Using the dimensional analysis, proper conversion factors and the molar masses,

                    mass of nitrogen = (0.129 g H₂)(1 mol H₂/2 g H₂)(1 mol N₂/3 mol H₂)(28 g N₂/1 mol N₂)
                     mass of nitrogen = 0.602 g N₂

Therefore, 0.602 g of nitrogen will be required for he reaction.
