What is the molecule that formed between B and F?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alik [6]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

BF3

Explanation:

For this question, you need to use the number of valence electrons present in each element. Boron is in group 3/13 on the periodic table so you know it has 3 valence electrons while Fluorine is in group 7/17 so it has 7 valence electrons. These elements are both covalent so they will share electrons. All elements in the first three rows want to reach either have 8 valence electrons or zero valence electrons depending on whichever is easier. When B and F interact each Fluorine will only want to take one electron, but Boron wants to get rid of all 3 electrons, so it will bond with 3 Fluorine to get rid of all its valence electrons.

I hope this helps.

Magnesium chloride is a salt formed with ionic bonds between one magnesium ion and two chloride ions. Magnesium has two electron
katrin [286]

Answer:

The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compound formed from the transfer of electron(s). One atom of the element loses electron(s) while the other atom gains electron(s).

The compound Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound . The bond between an atom of magnesium and 2 atoms of chlorine is an ionic bonding.

The valency electron of magnesium is 2 electron , for the atom of magnesium to  attain octet rule, it will easily lose it 2 electrons to the chlorine atoms.

The chlorine atom on the other hand has 7 valency electrons, to attain octet configuration it will most likely gain 1 electron to become stable.

The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.
