In the reaction, fluorine and chlorine are present as reactants. Fluorine is a stronger oxidizing agent than chlorine, as fluorine has the tendency to be reduced. Keep in mind that oxidation is when there is an increase in the oxidation number of a substance and reduction is when there is a decrease in the oxidation number. Therefore, the correct statement becomes:
Cl- oxidizes to Cl and F reduces to F-.
Answer:
In the middle of every atom is the nucleus. The nucleus contains two types of subatomic particles, protons and neutrons. The protons have a positive electrical charge and the neutrons have no electrical charge. A third type of subatomic particle, electrons, move around the nucleus
All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example, every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons.
Explanation:
Ionic compounds are the compounds in which complete transfer of electrons takes place from one element to another. In these compounds, the forces of attraction between the particles is strong and hence, they have the highest boiling points.
