AlF3
The first symbol represnts the compound magnesium iodide (MgI2) and the second symbol represents aluminum fluoride (AlF3)
AlF3 is called aluminium trifluoride.
molar mass AlF3 = 83.98 g/mole33.4 g AlF3 x 1 mole/83.98 g = 0.398 molesEach mole of AlF3 contains 3 moles of F- anions, because AlF3 ==> Al^3+ + 3F^-.Thus, moles of anions = 3 x 0.398 = 1.19 moles of anions
Colorless Solid
Al(FlO3)3. Al has a charge of +3 and FlO3 has a charge of -1 so 3 fluorate ions are needed for every Al ion to balance the charge of the compound. ***extra--if you didn't know what fluorate was.... A well known ion, ClO3 (the chlorate ion), has a charge of -1. Fl is in the same group as Cl so the fluorate ion will have the same number of oxygens and the same charge as ClO3.
The fullest correct name is monoaluminum trifluoride. It is often called more simply aluminum trifluoride, or even aluminum fluoride.
