It has the last electron to fill the p-subshell. Its valence electrons mimic a noble gas, so it is nonreactive.

Why hydrogen chloride is a gas but hydrogen flouride is a liquid?
Hydrogen fluoride (HF) is a gas at room temperature, but does have a higher boiling point than hydrogen chloride (HCl). Flourine is more electronegative than chlorine, so the HF molecule is more polar than the HCl molecule. This makes them more strongly attracted to one another (somewhat in the manner of magnets) and boiling a substance involves overcoming that intermolecular attraction.
What gas helps keep teeth strong when combined with tin?
This compound is tin(II) difluoride - SnF2.
Is carbon a more stable element than silicon?
Silicon is more stable.
Does hydrogen fluoride have covalent bonds?
Hydrogen fluoride has a Polar-covalent bond although, while the difference in electronegativity is more than 1.7 ( we expected to be Ionic ).
Why is hydrogen bonding more extensive in water than hydrogen fluoride?
because it is hotter than hydrogen flouride
What is Flourine Made of?
Flourine is made up of atoms. Flourine is a chemical element and dose not contain anything other than fluorine atoms.
Is hydride ion more stable or less stable than H-atom?
hydried is more stable than H-atom

What is the difference of isotopes of fluoride 18 different from fluoride 19?
Fluorine 19 has one neutron more than F18.

Is carbon a more stable element than silicon?
Silicon is more stable.
Is the Euro a stable currency?
More stable than the US dollar.
Is NH3 more or less stable than water?
Ammonia is less stable than water.
Which is more stable three legs or four?
Three legs are more stable than 4 legs.
Why is the median a more stable measure of central tendency than the mean?
in general,mean is more stable than median but in the case of extreme values it is better to consider median a stable measure than mean.
Why do you think are we less stable than four-legged mammals?
Humans balance on two legs. This is less stable than balancing on four legs. The more legs you can lean on, the more stable you are. Centipedes are really stable!
