Question

 The atom fluorine generally will become _____ stable through the formation of an ionic chemical compound by accepting _______ electron(s) from another atom. This process will fill its outer energy level of electrons.
A)more, 1B)less, 1C)more, 2D)less, 2

Answer 1

Answer:

more and 1

Explanation:

i just took the test :)

Answer 2

The atomic number of Fluorine is 9

Valence (outer) electron configuration is : 2s²2p⁵

Therefore, it requires 1 electron in the p-orbital to complete its octet of 8 electrons.

Thus, the atom Fluorine generally will become more stable through the formation of an ionic chemical compound by accepting 1 electron from another atom. This process will fill its outer energy level.

Ans:  A) more, 1
