Answer:

They will create an ionic bond.

Explanation:

The atom with the one valence electron will lose its one, because it's a metal and metals will lose electrons to become stable. The nonmetal (with 7 valence electrons) will gain that electron, therefore creating a stable octet for the nonmetal, making the compound stable.

Are ALL cations positive or negative ions
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:  Ions result from atoms or molecules that have gained or lost one or more valence electrons, giving them a positive or negative charge. Those with a negative charge are called anions and those with a positive charge are called cations. Cations (positively-charged ions) and anions (negatively-charged ions) are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. ... And all of them form an anion with a single negative charge. The VIA elements gain two electrons to form anions with a 2- charge.

hope this helps

Sodium borohydride, NaBH4, and boron trifluoride, BF3, are compounds of boron. What are the shapes around boron in the borohydri
STatiana [176]
Compound 1: Sodium borohydride
In sodium borohydride (NaBH4), B is a central metal.
Electronic configuration of B is 1s2 2s2 2p1.
B undergoes sp3 hybridization in NaBH4, to generate 4 hybrid orbitals. These hybrid orbitals, forms sigma bond with 4 'H' atoms. Due to this, the structure of sodium borohydride in tetrahedral.
........................................................................................................................

Compound 2: B<span>oron trifluoride
</span>In boron trifluoride (BF3), B is a central metal.
Electronic configuration of B is 1s2 2s2 2p1.
B undergoes sp2 hybridization in NaBH4, to generate 3 hybrid orbitals. These hybrid orbitals, forms sigma bond with 3 'H' atoms. Due to this, the structure of <span>boron trifluoride</span> is <span>triangular planner</span>.
