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>
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.
Dihydrogen monoxide is one of the scientific names of water having the formula H2O, where H2 "dihydrogen" is a double hydrogen (Latin Hydrogenium — hydrogen), and O is "monoxide" (oxygen).
