Does fluorine form a positive ion?
Negative (Fl-) All the halogens become negative ions.
Does chlorine form a positive or a negative ion?
Negative ion. Cl-
Why fluorine form negative ions?
The atomic number of fluorine is 9. Therefore its outermost shell contain 7 electrons and hence its valency (oxidation state) is -1.Hence fluorine will take part in chemical reactions by accepting 1 electron to complete its octet. So it forms negative ion F- .Added:Actually this is the only possible ion form of fluorine, being the most electronegative element of all. Positive ions are impossible.
How many electrons will fluorine gain or lose when forming an ion?
There is only one possibility for the ion form of the element fluorine:fluoride, F - , oxidation state -1.It is the most electronegatve element of all, so there is no other element able to abstract one ore more electrons FROM Fluorine.Fluoride is formed by the following reaction:F2 + 2e- --> 2 F-
Why lithium and other group 1 elements usually form positive ions while fluorine and other group 17 elements form negative ions?
Because group 1 has 1 electron in it's outer most shell and the have to fill the energy level, so they gave there electron and form positive ion (cation). And group 17 has 7 electrons in it's outer most shell and they need to complete their shell so the gain electron and form negative ion (anion).
Does flurine form a positive or negative ion?
Fluorine is negative and will produce a negative ion.
When potassium and fluorine bind which will form into a positive or negative ion?
Potassium loses 1 electron to form the K+ ion. Fluorine gains one electron to form the F- ion
Does fluorine form an ion with a positive charge?
NO !!!! Fluorine form an ANION , that is an ion eith negative charge. 'F^(-) '.
When potassium and fluorine bind what one will be the positive ion and which one will be the negative ion?
Potassium will be the the positive ion, and fluorine will be the negative ion because the potassium atom will give one electron to fluorine for they can both be stable. Fluorine will receive one electron from potassium and it will be stable because it has now 8 valence electrons. Giving is positive and receiving is negative. Hope this helps.
