NO!!!!

Fluorine is an elemental gas in the HALOGEN Group.

The word 'halogen' is from Latin and means 'salt maker'. So when fluorine is combined with a Group (I) or (II) metal (Alkali/Alkali Earth Metal) ot forms a salt.

e.g.

2Na(s) + F^(2)(g) = 2NaF(s) ( The chemical salt).

Halogens, such as chlorine, iodine or fluorine.


Which element when combined with fluorine most likely form an ionic compound?

Sodium is a likely candidate to form an ionic compound with fluorine because sodium is a metal with 1 valence electron, while fluorine is a non-metal with 7 valence electrons. When sodium loses its electron and fluorine gains it, an ionic bond is formed between the two elements.

Which alkali metal has the largest electronegativity?

The alkali metal with the largest electronegativity is fluorine, found in Group 1 of the periodic table. Its low atomic size and high effective nuclear charge lead to a strong attraction for electrons, resulting in the highest electronegativity among alkali metals.
