No. At room temperature (298K), fluorine is a gas.

Fluorine is a gas.


Is fluorine a solid liquid or a gas at room temperature?

Fluorine is a gas at room temperature.


Is fluorine dull or shiny?

Fluorine is neither dull nor shin, it is NOT a solid. It is an elemental yellow gas, and very poisonous.


What is potassium fluorine?

It is not potassium fluorine, it is called potassium fluoride. It is an ionic solid with the formula KF, K is the symbol for potassium, and F is the symbol for fluorine.


What is fluorine's shape?

Fluorine has two solid forms, α- and β-fluorine. The latter crystallizes at −220 °C (−364 °F) and is transparent and soft, with the same disordered cubic structure of freshly crystallized solid oxygen, unlike the orthorhombic systems of other solid halogens. Nov 15 2019

its melting point is 219.62C


Are fluorine and chlorine both a solid at room temperature?

No, they are both gasses.


When fluorine is in a solid state is it hard or soft?

That depends on the temperature and solid state phase. Fluorine solidifies at −220 °C (−363 °F) into a cubic structure, called "beta-fluorine". Beta-fluorine is soft - possibly owing to the generally disorganized arrangement of individual microscopic crystals. At −228 °C (−378 °F) fluorine undergoes a solid-solid phase transition to a monoclinic crystal structure called "alpha-fluorine". This phase is hard, with close-packed layers of molecules and a much more regular and extensive crystaline structure than beta-fluorine. Note that what we think we know about alpha-fluorine is based on work done by Nobel Laureate Linus Pauling and was quite tricky due to the very low temperatures required and the rather energetic reactions of fluorine with the materials usually used to hold chemicals.


To become more stable fluorine is likely to?

To become more stable, fluorine is most likely to gain 1 electron and form F- ion.


Is fouorine a liquid gas or solid?

If you mean fluorine, it is a gas at room temperature.


At STP fluorine is a gas and iodine is a solid This observation can be explained by the fact that fluorine has?

Looking at the atomic size,fluorine is the smallest of the halogen family.fluorine has an atomic number of 9 while iodine has its atomic mass to be 54.


How many electrons would fluorine have to gain or lose too become stable?

Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. In order to become stable, Florine will share 1 electron with another atom to get 8 electron and become stable.
