The atomic number of fluorine is 9.

Atomic number is the number of protons present in the element. The number of electrons and protons is same in a neutral element.

The given ion of fluorine is ^{19}F^{-}. It represents a uninegative anion with a mass number of 19.

It is an anion with a charge of -1, this means that there is an additional electron in the ion. The number of electrons in this ion are 9 + 1 = 10 electrons

The correct answer will be C. 10 electrons

Which compounds are lewis acids? select all that apply. (ch3ch2)2hc+ cl3c− ch3nh2 bbr3?
alexandr402 [8]

The Lewis acids are electron pair acceptors due to the availability of vacant orbitals they accept electrons from the donor compounds.

  • (CH_3CH_2)_2CH^{+} is a Lewis acid due to the unfilled valence shell on carbon atom (possessing positive charge) it accepts electron readily.
  • CCl_{3}^{-} is not a Lewis acid due to the presence of negative charge which represents that there are electrons available for donation.
  • CH_3NH_2 is not a Lewis acid due to the presence of lone pair on nitrogen which is easily donated to the acceptors.
  • BBr_3 is a Lewis acid due to the availability of vacant p-orbital on boron atom.

Hence, (CH_3CH_2)_2CH^{+} and BBr_3 are Lewis acids.

To balance a chemical equation it may be necessary to adjust the
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

  • <em>To balance a chemical equation it may be necessary to adjust the </em><u>coefficients.</u>

Explanation:

The <em>coefficients</em> of a <em>chemical equation</em> are the numbers that you put in front of each reactant and product. They are used to balance the equation and comply with the law of mass conservation.

By adjusting the coefficients you obtain the relative amounts (moles) of each product and reactant, i.e. the mole ratios.

Here an example.

The first information is what is called a word equation. E.g. nitrogen and hydrogen react to form ammonia:

  • Word equation: hydrogen + nitrogen → ammonia

  • Skeleton equation: H₂ + N₂ → NH₃

        This equation shows the chemical formulae but it is not balanced. The law of mass conservation is not observed.

So, in order to comply with the law of mass conservation you adjust the coefficients as follow.

  • Balanced chemical equation: 3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃

        As you see, it was necessary to modify the coefficients. Now the law of conservation of mass is observed and you get the mole ratios:

  • 3 mol H₂ : 1 mol  N₂ : 2 mol NH₃
