Given :
A chemical compound .
To Find :
Fix the formula for and write the full correct formula.
Solution :
We know, Potassium( K ) and Fluorine( F ) both have a valency of 1 i.e potassium can donate one electron and Fluorine can accept one electron only.
So, the chemical formula is wrong because no element has filled electron.
Therefore, to stabilise the molecule, 1 Potassium atom should make a bond from 1 Fluorine i.e KF ( correct formula ) .
Hence, this is the required solution.
