Due to the small and highly electronegative nature of fluorine, the oxyacids of the this element are much less common and less s

table than those of the other halogens. Bonding theory, however, does allow one to propose structures for these acids and use formal charges for the evaluation of these structures. For a molecule of fluorous acid, the atoms are arranged as HOFO.
What is the formal charge on each of the atoms?

Answer:

The formal charge for H,O,F,O = 0 ,0 , 1, -1

Explanation:

The octet of electrons acquired by oxygen and fluorine atoms in this structure and the formal charges add to zero.Assigning of a formal charge +1 to an electro-negative atom as fluorine indicates that a structure does not occur .Fluorine normally forms one oxyacid HOF.

What is a molecule???
ololo11 [35]
A molecule consists of group of atoms that are bonded together by chemical bond. It is the smallest particle of an element or a compound that has the properties of the element or the compound embedded in it. The atoms present in one element easily forms a bonding with the atoms of another element to form molecules. The size and complex nature of molecules varies hugely. Some molecules can have a single atom as is the case with helium, while in several other elements the number of atoms in the molecule can be more than one.

The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction
vampirchik [111]

only reactants are present

If equllibrium constant is greater than 10^3 then product predominates

If equllibrium constant is greater than 10^ -3  then reactant predominates

in between 10^3 and 10^-3 the reaction is in equllibrium

and we see that the above value is 10^-31, it is  very  small so the answer is reactants are presents
