What would happen if a fluorine atom and a potassium atom came into contact?
They would form the ionic compound potassium fluoride, KF.
What element will bond to form an ionic compound with K?
Potassium will form ionic compound with group 17 elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine) and group 16 elements (oxygen, sulphur, selenium).
What bond will form between potassium and fluorine diagrams?
Ionic bond
Is F2 an example of an ionic compound?
F2 is neither ionic nor a compound, it is an element, fluorine, in the diatomic form.
Will element Potassiumand Chlorine form an ionic compound?
Yes, the elements potassium and chlorine will react--very vigorously--to form the ionic compound potassium chloride.
Is potassium atom and a fluorine atom is covalent or ionic bond?
Potassium and fluorine will form an ionic bond

Does potassium and fluorine form an ionic bond?
Yes, they form an ionic bond.
What element will bond to form an ionic compound with K?
Potassium will form ionic compound with group 17 elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine) and group 16 elements (oxygen, sulphur, selenium).
Will nitrogen and fluorine form a ionic compound?
Na+F form NaF a ionic compound
What would fluorine have to combine with to form an ionic compound?
If fluorine combines with an element such that their electronegativity difference is more than 1.7, then they will form an ionic compound. Example:- Hydrogen fluoride is an ionic compound. Hydrogen has electronegativity of 2.1 and fluorine has 4.0. So, the difference is 1.9. Therefore, it is an ionic compound.
What bond will form between potassium and fluorine diagrams?
Ionic bond
Is magnesium and fluorine most likely to form an ionic compound?
Yes. They will form the ionic compound magnesium fluoride, MgF2.
What type of bond will form between K and F?
The bond between the metal potassium (K) and the nonmetal fluorine (F) is ionic. During the formation of the ionic compound potassium fluoride (KF), the potassium atom loses an electron and becomes a positively charged ion, and the fluorine atom gains the electron and becomes a negatively charged ion. The electrostatic attraction between the two oppositely charged ions is the ionic bond. In general, a metal and a nonmetal will form an ionic bond.
Is a ionic compound likely to form between fluorine and chlorine?
no
Is F2 an example of an ionic compound?
