<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.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

The correct answer is electrons.

Explanation:

The electrons refer to the negatively charged constituents, which are arranged in the orbits around the nucleus of an atom. It determines all the chemical and physical characteristics of an atom except the radioactivity and mass.  It is a stable subatomic particle witnessed in all the atoms and functioning as the chief carrier of electricity in solids.

When 1 mole of carbon is burned, carbon dioxide is produced, and 393 kilojoules (kJ) of energy are released. If this reaction is
EleoNora [17]
The energy of 393 kJ is released as heat.  Then, the container will experience an increase of temperature and, given that it is sealed, also an increase of pressure.

The increase of temperature results from the heat developed during the reaction.

The increase of pressure results from the fact that that the solid carbon will become gaseuos carbon dioxide. This gas will occupy a larger volume than the solid carbon and also this elevation of the temperature will make the pressure of the gas inside the container increase.
