Fluorine belongs to the 7th Group of the Periodic Table - the halogens. It has --> 9 Protons 10 Neutrons 9 electrons in the atomic state.

Also - it's oxidation state (valency) is (1-) or (7+) It has 7 electrons in it's outer most shell.

What element has the greatest electronegativity?

Fluorine... by far. Its so electronegative that it will never form double bonds, even if they would make sense by the octet rule. BF3 is a really good example of this

Is the ionization energy of chlorine higher than that of fluorine?

In the periodic table of elements, fluorine and iodine are in the same column, but fluorine is in the second, iodine in the fifth row. That means fluorine has only nine electrons flying around in orbitals while iodine has 53 of them. Ionization is the called a process during which a single electron is abstracted - we're now talking about the 1st ionization energy, which is much higher for fluorine. Well, as it only has nine electrons scattered in the orbitals (but according laws, of course), they do not really influence the repelling - attracting actions between the positive center and the other electrons beside them. For iodine with 53 electrons, they really do interfere with the attraction of other electrons AND as the outmost electrons (which are the ones taken away by ionization) are in those orbitals which are at the biggest distance to the center - for 53 electrons the outmost orbitals is at a much bigger distance... both results in a smaller attraction of the electrions at max distance from the center... so for iodine you need less energy to perform ionization.

How many polar bonds does sulfur tetrafluoride have?

Flourine is far more electronegative, meaning it pulls harder on the electrons, making it slightly negative and the sulfur slightly positive.


How many electrons does fluorine-19 have?

Fluorine-19 (not "flourine-19) has an atomic number of 9 and therefore has 9 each of protons and electrons. The number of neutrons is found by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass number: 19 - 9 = 10 neutrons.


What type of element is flourine?

What ions would form from the element F?

F-1 (flouride). Flourine has the strongest attraction for electrons of any element, so the oxidation state of -1 is the only one that flourine uses.


What element has 9 electrons?

Flourine (atomic number 9) has 9 protons and 9 electrons and 10 neutrons. Of course if it were a trick question than all elements with an atomic number of 9 or greater would hae 9 electrons :)
