Lithium and fluorine undergo ionic bonding. Using the noble gas electron configurations for each (below), please explain the pro
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Lithium loses one electron to fluorine and forms ionic bond, having formula LiF.

Explanation:

Lithium is the element of the group 1 and period 2 which means that the valence electronic configuration is [He]2s^1.

Fluorine is the element of the group 17 and period 2 which means that the valence electronic configuration is [He]2s^22p^5.

<u>Thus, lithium loses 1 electron and become positively charged. Fluorine on the other hand accepts this electron and become negatively charged.</u> This is done in order that the octet of the atoms are complete.  <u>These both ions then form ionic bond as their will be electrostatic interaction between the two oppositely charged ions.</u>

Thus, the formula of calcium chloride is LiF.
