Answer:

Anion ( F^-)

Explanation:

An anion is formed when a non metal receives an electron from metallic atom.

Fluorine atom has electronic configuration of 1S2 2S2 2P5. It therefore needs 1 electron to attain the noble gas configuration. Thus to do this, fluorine will receive 1 electron from metallic atom to form fluoride ion(F^-) with electronic configuration as 1s2 2s2 2p6 and thus forming ionic bond.

This can be seen when sodium react with fluorine to form sodium fluoride according to the equation

1. Na —> Na+ + e-

2. F + e- —> F-

Combining 1 and 2, we have:

Na + F + e- —> Na+ + F- + e-

Na + F —> Na+F-

The above illustration indicates ionic bonding as electron was transferred from the sodium atom to the fluorine atom, thus forming sodium ion (Na+) and fluorine ion(F-)

Answer:

An anion

Explanation:

An ion of flourine wife form an anion. What is an anion? An anion is a negatively charged atom.It occurs as a result of gain of electron by an atom to stabilize it's octet structure.

This is a common phenomenon for non metals and halogens are a good example of that which are strongly electronegative with electronic configuration of 2,7......

Write Qc for each of the following:(1) Gaseous sulfur tetrafluoride reacts with liquid water to produce gaseous sulfur dioxide a
snow_tiger [21]

Answer : The expression for reaction quotient will be :

(1) Q_c=\frac{[SO_2][HF]^4}{[SF_4]}

(2) Q_c=\frac{[O_2]^2[Xe]}{[XeF_2]}

Explanation :

Reaction quotient (Q_c) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

(1) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

SF_4(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow SO_2(g)+4HF(g)

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.  So, the expression for reaction quotient will be :

Q_c=\frac{[SO_2][HF]^4}{[SF_4]}

(2) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2MoO_2(s)+XeF_2(g)\rightarrow 2MoF(l)+Xe(g)+2O_2(g)[/texIn this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.  So, the expression for reaction quotient will be :[tex]Q_c=\frac{[O_2]^2[Xe]}{[XeF_2]}

Why can metals be extracted using carbon
8090 [49]
If a metal is less reactive than carbon, it can be extracted from its oxide by heating with carbon. The carbon displaces the metal from the compound, and removes the oxygen from the oxide. This leaves the metal.

What do you mean by atomic number? ​
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Atomic number is the number of protons in an isotope or element.

Explanation: The atomic number is the same number of protons in an element or isotope and if said isotope is neutral than it is the same number of electrons.

Example: Atomic number = 19 Protons = 19 if neutral Electrons = 19
