Lana71 [14]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

When a chlorine atom forms an ion, it gains electrons, making it negative.  A neutral chlorine will become a chlorine with a -1 charge.  When it gains an electron, the radius increases.

When a sodium atom forms an ion, it loses electrons, making it positive.  A neutral sodium will become a sodium with a +1 charge.  When it loses an electron, the radius decreases.

Identify the type of chemical reaction of cobalt (III) fluoride
zysi [14]

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.
