F (Fluorine) is in column (group/family) VIIA, or the "halogens". When you see the halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) in combination with a metal, each halogen atom present will carry a -1 charge. We can see that the atom has no charge, so the metal must cancel out the negative charges brought by the two fluorine atoms.
(Charge on m) + 2*(charge on fluorine) = 0
(Charge on m) + 2*(-1) = 0
(Charge on m) - 2 = 0
Charge on m ion = +2
The ratio of effusion rates for the lightest gas H₂ to the heaviest known gas UF₆ is 13.21 to 1
<h3>What is effusion?</h3>
Effusion is a process by which a gas escapes from its container through a tiny hole into evacuated space.
Rate of effusion ∝ 1/√Ц, (where Ц is molar mass)
Rate H₂ = 1/√ЦH₂
Rate UF₆ = 1/√ЦUF₆
Therefore, Rate H₂/ Rate UF₆ = √ЦH₂/√ЦUF₆
ЦH₂= 2.016 g/mol
ЦUF₆= 352.04 g/mol
Rate H₂ / Rate UF₆ = √352.04/√2.016 = 18.76/1.42
Rate H₂ / Rate UF₆ = 13.21
Therefore, H₂ is lower mass than UF₆. Thus H₂ gas will effuse 13 times more faster than UF₆ because the most probable speed of H₂ molecule is higher; therefore, more molecules escapes per unit time.
