Why fluorine exist as a diatomic molecule?

Each fluorine atom has 7 electrons in its outer shell, but a setup of 8 outer shell electrons (called an octet) is stable. To get this octet a fluorine atom will form a single covalent bond with another fluorine atom. Each atom give one electron to be shared between the two.


In a molecule of fluorine the two shared electrons give each fluorine atom how many electrons?

8


How many proton's does fluorine have?

Each fluorine atom has 9 protons.


What is phosphorus trifluoride made up of?

Phosphorus and fluorine. Each phosphorus atom is bonded to three fluorine atoms.


What is the overall charge of the atom since the atom contains positive charges and negative charges. how is that possible?

An atom is always neutral of charge, meaning ZERO. This is possible because of the equal numbers of (positive) protons and (negative) electrons, each plus charge is compensated by one (equally negative) minus charge.


What is the correct formula for aluminum and fluorine form a compound in which the aluminum to fluorine ratio is?

Aluminum fluoride is AlF3. It has 3 fluorine atoms for each aluminum atom.


What elements are in hydrogen fluride?

Hydrogen and fluorine. One of each atom in the compound.


How many valence electrons are transferred from the calcium atom to iodine in the formatoin of the compound calcium iodide?

during the formation of calcium iodide,calcium donates two of its +ve ions each to a fluorine atom(2 in number) thereby making its octet and also fulfills the octet formation of each of fluorine atom..


Why are a neutral atoms positive and negative charges balanced?

For the atom to be neutral, the positive and negative charges must cancel each other out.


How many lone pairs are fluorine?

As indicated by the prefix "tetra" in the compound name, each molecule of carbon tetrafluoride contains 4 fluorine atoms.4


How many proton does the atom have?

There are 9 protons in the element fluorine.


How is it possible that an atom has no charge or is said to be neutral with an atom containing subatomic particles which possess charges?

there is an equal number of positive and negative charges which exactly cancel each other out.
