Fluoride Ion
No. Fluorine is a chemical element. It will readily form fluoride ions.
When potassium and fluorine bind, potassium will form a positive ion (K+) and fluorine will form a negative ion (F-). Potassium will lose an electron to become a cation with a +1 charge, while fluorine will gain an electron to become an anion with a -1 charge.
Fluorine forms the fluoride ion, which has a charge of -1.
Fluorine gains one electron to form a fluoride ion.
Anion. It gains an electron, making it negative.

Fluorine gains one electron to form a fluoride ion.
The symbol for fluorine as an ion is F-.
Anion. It gains an electron, making it negative.
Not really sure if this is right, but the most-stable ion that fluorine makes is 1 electron more than its usual 7 electron based outer ring... so the usual [He]1s²2s²2p⁵ becomes [He]1s²2s²2p⁶ or something similar to that
No, The fluoride ion is a reduced form of fluorine.
When fluorine reacts with a metal, it gains an electron to form the fluoride ion (F-). This process is called reduction, as the fluorine atom is gaining electrons.
All the listed elements form ions with a charge of 1, if "1" is taken as the absolute value of the charge on the ion. For fluorine, however, the corresponding ion has a charge of -1.
No, fluorine forms a negatively charged ion, F-. Like all non metals, fluorine tends to acquire electrons, and thereby acquires an added negative charge.
Fluorine is negative and will produce a negative ion.
