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......

Bubba falls out of a plane flying over his peanut field. What will bubba speed be after falling for 8 seconds?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Variables we know:

t = 8 seconds

Vi = 0 m/s

g = -9.81

Δy = ?

Vf = ?

Equation we will be using to solve for Vf: Vf = Vi + gt

Steps to solve:

Vf = (0) + (-9.81)(8)

Vf = -78.48 m/s

Hope this helps!! :)

Which of the following equations has the correct products and is balanced correctly for a reaction between Na3PO4 and KOH?
ASHA 777 [7]

The answer is: A) Na3PO4 + 3KOH → 3NaOH + K3PO4, because K retains the same charge throughout the reaction.

This chemical reaction is double displacement reaction - cations (K⁺ and Na⁺) and anions (PO₄³⁻⁻ and OH⁻) of the two reactants switch places and form two new compounds.  

Na₃PO₄ is sodium phosphate.  

KOH is potassium hydroxide.  

NaOH is sodium hydroxide.  

K₃PO₄ is potassium phosphate.  

According to the mass conservation law, there are same number of atoms on both side of balanced chemical reaction.
