A Fluorine atom has an atomic number of 9. Draw out the electron shell diagram for Fluorine. Is a Fluorine atom more likely to gain, lose or share electrons to fill its valence shell?
Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. In order to become stable, Florine will share 1 electron with another atom to get 8 electron and become stable.
Yes, Fluorine has 7 valence electrons and it is easier for it to accept one more to fill its shell than to give up 7.
The electron valence shell has 1 electron.
A noble gas element has as many valence electrons as are needed to completely fill its valence shell: 2 for helium and 8 for all the others. Since a filled valence shell is the condition that other atoms are most likely to reach during chemical reaction, the noble gases are unreactive except with extremely electronegative elements such as fluorine, for which the chemical driving force for gaining an electron to fill the fluorine valence shell is stronger than the energy input required to extract an electron from one of the heavier noble gas atoms.
Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. 2 In the first electron shell, and 5 in the second electron shell.
I believe you are talking about fluorine. If you are, F needs one more electron to gain a full shell.If you go to WikiAnswers for this information, that is counterproductive, because there is a much better way to do it. Look at the periodic table. Groups IA through VIIIA tell you what you need to know. IA has one valence electron, IIA has two valence electrons etc. Fluorine is in group VIIA and therefore has seven valence electrons. All atoms want eight, and thus fluorine is in need of one more.
this is because a fluorine ion is one electron short of a full valence shell,which makes getting another electron to fill the shell very favourable,filling the shell makes the molecule much more stable

It needs only 1 more electron since it already has 7 valence electrons.
The outermost shell of an electron is called the valence shell. This shell may or may not have electrons.The valence shell is a part of the electron cloud.So your answer isYes, the valence electrons are located in the electron cloud.
Valence shell electron pair repulsion
The period tells you the valence ELECTRON SHELL (energy level). The group tells you the number of valence electrons.
A valence electron, or valence electrons, are found in all of the elements. A valence electron is an electron located on the out most shell of an element (the valence shell). Most elements will have more than one valence electron. Oxygen, or O, has six valence electrons because its outer shell consists of six electrons.
Fluorine is a halogen. All halogens have 7 valence electrons. There are thus 7 valence electrons for Fluorine, 2 in the 2s orbital, and 5 in the 2p orbitals.
Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. In order to become stable, Florine will share 1 electron with another atom to get 8 electron and become stable.
