Fluoride is an anion of Fluorine
What this means is that the two have the same number of protons (9), but Fluoride has 10 electrons compared to Fluorine's 9.
So the answers are:
Protons - 9
Neutrons - 9
Electrons - 10
Atomic Number - 9
Atomic Mass - 19 g/mol
Oxygen and neon are both elements. Oxygen has 8 electrons and 8 protons. Neon has 10 electrons and 10 protons. Oxygen is also a non-metal element and Neon is a noble gas.
The answer is yes. A chemical change occurred.
Chemical change is defined as the rearrangement or alteration in the of atoms in one or more substance which result in the formation of a new substance.
In the above, you mixed two clear liquids and the result was a new substance which is a colored solid precipitate at the bottom of the beaker.
This means that changes in the atoms of the two clear liquids occurred leading to the formation of this new solid substance.
This means that chemical change has occurred.
Hope this helps :)
