<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.

What carbon atoms can bond with
elena-s [515]
Carbon has four valence electrons, so it can achieve a full outer energy level by forming four covalent bonds. When it bonds only with hydrogen, it formscompounds called hydrocarbons. Carbon can form single, double, or triple covalent bonds with other carbon atoms.

In every balanced chemical equation, each side of the equation has the same number of _____.
Ber [7]

The correct answer is option d, that is, atoms of the element.  

As the atoms are neither destroyed nor created in a chemical reaction, the sum of the mass of the products in a reaction must be equivalent to the sum of the mass of the reactants.  

The chemical reactions must be balanced, they must exhibit a similar number of atoms of each element on both the sides of the equation. As a consequence, the mass of the reactants must be equivalent to the mass of the products of the reaction.

Determine the final temperature of a system, if 120 grams had an initial temperature of 80°C and mixes with 3,000 g of water at
frutty [35]

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture is 22.3°C

Explanation:

Assuming that the 120 g substance at 80°C is water, final temperature of the mixture can be determined using the formula:

Heat lost = Heat gained

Heat = mc∆T where m is mass, c is specific heat capacity of water, and ∆T is the temperature change =<em> Tfinal - Tinitial</em>.

Let the final temperature be T

Heat lost = 120 × c × (T - 80)

Heat gained = 3000 × c × ( T - 20)

Equating the heat lost and heat gained

120 × c × -(T - 80) = 3000 × c × (T - 20)

9600 - 120T = 3000T - 60000

60000 + 9600 = 3000T + 120T

69600 = 3120T

T = 69600/3120

T = 22.3°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the mixture is 22.3°C
