What is the valance of fluorine?
-1
How many additional valance electrons does fluorine need to have a valance shell?
1
How many valance electrons do fluorine and chlorine have?
Since fluorine and chlorine are in family 7A, they each have 7 valence electrons. The number of the family corresponds to the number of valence electrons.
How many valance electrons are in fluorine?
hundereds
Fluorine has 7 of these valance electron?
Indeed.
How many additional valence electrons does fluorine need to have a full valance shell?
1
How do valence numbers help determine the oxidation number?
oxidation number is defined as a positive or negative number corresponding to the charge that an atom in a molecule or ion would have if the electron pairs belonged entirely to the more electronegative atom. in this case, they're talking about 'valance electrons'. An example would be...fluorine has 7 valance electrons. when bonded with another element, it would in almost all of the cases want to gain 1 more electron to have a full valance shell of 8 electrons. Therefore, it would become F -1 As a result, fluorine's oxidation number becomes -1, the same as its CHARGE when bonded to ANOTHER element (NOT ITSELF) when fluorine bonds to itself to become Fluorine gas, its oxidation number is zero. that goes for all ....elements which bond with itself to form a diatomic molecule (oxygen gas, hydrogen gas, etc) --gh ---
How many valence electrons does a fluorine atom contain?
A fluorine atom has 7 valance electrons. This can be identified by looking which group fluorine is located, which is group 7. However when the atoms get bigger this rule does not apply so easily.
How many electrons are in a fluorine ion?
in a normal F- ion there are 10 electrons total (but 8 in the outer energy level)
Would fluorine's chemical properties more closely resemble those of oxygen or those of chlorine?
Fluorine is more chemically similar to chlorine than it is to oxygen. Fluorine and chlorine both have 7 valance electrons, whereas oxygen has 6.
What is the atomic number for fluorine?
the atomic number for fluorine is 9
What number is fluorine on the periodic table?
Fluorine is number 9.
