How many atoms are bonded to the central atom in a fluorine (F2) molecule?
mylen [45]

Answer:

Only one atom are bonded to the central atom in the F_{2}.

Explanation:

Fluorine most electronegative element.

The atomic number of fluorine is 9.

Electronic configuration - 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{4}

Hence, it required only one electron to get noble gas[Ne] electronic configuration.

In the F_{2} molecule two fluorine atoms are bonded by single covalent bond to get stability.

Each atom share one electron and form a bond.

The structure of F_{2} molecule is as follows.

A chemist examines an ionic compound that contains magnesium and one other element. She
Igoryamba

Group 7

Explanation:

The unknown element belongs to the seventh group on the periodic table of elements.

Ionic bonds are usually formed between metals and nonmetals. They formed by the transfer of electrons from the less electronegative specie to the more electronegative one.

The metals usually lose electron because they are highly electropositive species.

  • If we have a magnesium atom with two valence electrons.
  • To form ionic bonds, it must transfer the two electrons to another atom.
  • The other atom, a nonmetal must be ready to accommodate and receive the donated electrons.
  • This ensure that its own octet is complete.
  • Group 6 elements requires 2 electrons to have a complete octet.
  • They can receive the two electrons

But we were told that there are two atoms of that element for each of the magnesium atom;

  the atom must have a capacity of collecting one electron each to be stable.

Such atoms are found in Group 7 on the periodic table.

If the H3O is 4.950 x 10-12 what is the ph?
romanna [79]

Answer:

pH = 11.3

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Concentration of hydronium ion [H₃O⁺] = 4.950×10¯¹² M

pH =.?

The pH of a solution is defined by the following equation:

pH = –Log [H₃O⁺]

Thus, with the above formula, we can obtain the pH of the solution as follow:

Concentration of hydronium ion [H₃O⁺] = 4.950×10¯¹² M

pH =.?

pH = –Log [H₃O⁺]

pH = –Log 4.950×10¯¹²

pH = 11.3
