<h3>Answer:</h3>

             Number of Protons  =  9

             Number of Neutrons  =  9

             Number of Electrons  =  10

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Number of Protons:

                               The number of protons present in any atom are equal to the atomic number of that particular atom. Hence, as the atomic number of Fluorine is 9 therefore, it contains 9 protons.

Number Neutrons:

                             The number of neutrons present in atom are calculated as,

                                # of Neutrons  =  Atomic Mass - # of protons

As given,

                                Atomic Mass  =  18

                                # of Protons  =  9

So,

                                # of Neutrons  =  18 - 9

                                # of Neutrons  =  9

Number of Electrons:

                                   As we know for a neutral atom the number of electrons are exactly equal to the number of protons present in its nucleus. So, for 9 protons in neutral Fluorine atom there must be 9 electrons. But, we are given with Fluoride Ion (i.e. F⁻) so it contains one extra electron hence, it contains the total of 10 electrons respectively.

Answer 1) Option D : Discrete


Explanation : As in the example the scientist studies about the effects of growing human populations on the biodiversity which is found in a region, and where each region was selected had a different population density of humans from 1 to 10 million per 10 square miles. Then in each region the number of different species that can be found was recorded. So here the numerical data was collected for different regions. So, we can conclude it as discrete because when the variable takes on a countable number of values it is called as discrete.


Answer 2) Option D : The entertainment industry


Explanation : When people had enough time and money with them there was no need of creating the communications industry as it was a need not a luxurious thing. With the creation of Internet industry it is somewhat irrelevant. They had enough of time and money so building a labor industry seems to be a lame choice. So, the option of entertainment industry suits the best.

Which state of matter would be described as having highly energized, charged particles that move extremely fast
uranmaximum [27]
There are four states of matter, solid, liquid, gas and plasma. Their formation is as when solid is heated it converts into liquid, liquid on heating converts into gases and gases on heating converts into plasma.

Plasma:
           Plasma is the fourth state of matter. It is the highest energy state of matter.

Composition:
           Plasma is made up of negatively charged and positively charged particles.

Result:
           The answer to your question is Plasma.
