Answer and Explanation: The full ground-state electron configuration for a fluorine atom is 1s2, 2s2, 2p5. We determine this by first identifying the number of electrons in a fluorine atom. If the atom is neutral, it will have nine electrons to match the nine protons int he fluorine nucleus
Answer:
Metals in nature are found in rock form, mineral forms etc..
<u>Answer:</u> The isotope produced after the transmutation process of Cf-249 and C-12 is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
Transmutation is defined as the process where one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.
The chemical equation for the reaction of Californium-249 nucleus with Carbon-12 nucleus follows:

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.
<u>To calculate A:</u>
Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side
249 + 12 = A + 4
A = 257
<u>To calculate Z:</u>
Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side
98 + 6 = Z + 0
Z = 104
Hence, the isotope produced after the transmutation process of Cf-249 and C-12 is
