The compound crystallizes in the aluminium trifluoride motif. Each fluoride is a doubly bridging ligand. The cobalt centers are octahedral.
CoF3 decomposes upon contact with water to give oxygen:
4 CoF3 + 2 H2O → 4 HF + 4 CoF2 + O2
It reacts with fluoride salts to give the anion [CoF6]3−, which is also features high-spin, octahedral cobalt(III) center.

Answer:
Explanation:
A buffer is defined as an aqueous mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.
In the systems:
H₂CO₃(aq) and KHCO₃(aq): Carbonic acid, H₂CO₃, is a weak acid that, in solution with its conjugate pair, HCO₃⁻ make a <em>buffer system.</em>
NaCl(aq) and NaOH(aq): NaCl is a salt and NaOH is a strong base. Thus, this system <em>is not </em> a buffer system.
H₂O(l) and HCl(aq): Water is a solvent and HCl a strong acid. This <em>is not </em>a buffer system.
HCl(aq) and NaOH(aq): HCl is a strong acid and NaOH a strong base. This <em>is not </em>a buffer system.
NaCl(aq) and NaNO₃(aq): Both NaCl and NaNO₃ are salts and this system <em>is not </em>a buffer system.
The physical and chemical properties of carbon depend on the crystalline structure of the element. Its density fluctuates from 2.25 g/cm³ (1.30 ounces/in³) for graphite and 3.51 g/cm³ (2.03 ounces/in³) for diamond. The melting point of graphite is 3500ºC (6332ºF) and the extrapolated boiling point is 4830ºC (8726ºF).
