What is the atomic number for flouride?

Fluoride itself is not an element. It is the ion formed by the element fluorine. The atomic number of fluorine is 9.


How is a fluorine isotope different from a fluorine ion how are they the same?

The fluorine isotope differs from the fluorine ion because the fluorine isotope has a different number of neutrons from normal, while the ion has a different number of electrons. An isotope will have the same number of electrons as its atomic number (the number of protons), while the ion will add (more common in the case of fluorine) or subtract (very rare in the case of fluorine) electrons to the atom. The only thing they are similar in is the number of protons they have, which are the same.


Fluorine has an atomic number of 9 What is the symbol and charge for an ion of fluorine that has 10 electrons?

A fluorine ion with atomic number 9 and 10 electrons has a charge of -1 because it has one extra electron as compared to the number of protons (10-9 = 1). Its symbol is F-.

How many protons dose fluoride have?

Every fluoride ion contains 9 protons. The only common ion of fluorine has a single negative charge, indicating that it contains one more electron than proton, or 10 electrons. The number of neutrons is the mass number minus the atomic number (same as the number of protons). The most common isotope of fluorine is F-19, which contains 19 - 9 = 10 neutrons.


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)


How many electons are in the fluorine ion f-1?

Fluorine has atomic number 9, therefore the neutral fluorine atom has 9 electrons. The F-1 ion has 10 electrons.


What is bigger radius from Oxygen negative and fluorine negative?

The radius of a fluoride ion (F-) is larger than that of an oxygen ion (O2-). This is because fluorine has an additional shell of electrons compared to oxygen, leading to increased atomic size and hence larger ionic radius. Additionally, the increase in electron repulsion within the fluoride ion contributes to its larger size compared to the oxide ion.


What would you need to tell the number of protons and electrons present in an ion?

The atomic number of the element in the ion, when there is only one such element, and the atomic charge on the ion. For example, in Na+1, the atomic number is 11; this gives the number of protons. The number of electrons is equal to the atomic number minus the charge on the ion, in this instance, 10 electrons. If the sign on the ion is negative, as in O-2, remember that subtracting a negative number is equivalent to adding the positive number of the same magnitude. Thus, oxygen has an atomic number of 8, and 8 - (-2) equals 10 electrons.
