Fluorine has seven electrons. Fluorine will form covalent and ionic bonds.

Ionic- If it combines with any metal

Covalent- If it bonds with a non-metal

HOW MANY VALANCE ELECTRONS IN NF3?

There are 7 valence electrons in an NF3 molecule. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and each fluorine atom contributes 1 valence electron, totaling 3 electrons for the 3 fluorine atoms.


How many valence electrons does XeF5 have?

Xenon pentafluoride (XeF5) has a total of 8 valence electrons. Xenon (Xe) contributes 8 valence electrons, while each fluorine (F) atom contributes 7 valence electrons. The 5 fluorine atoms in XeF5 contribute a total of 35 valence electrons.


How many valence electrons does a fluorine atom contain?

A fluorine atom has 7 valance electrons. This can be identified by looking which group fluorine is located, which is group 7. However when the atoms get bigger this rule does not apply so easily.


How many total valence electrons does the pf6- ion have?

The PF6⁻ ion consists of one phosphorus (P) atom and six fluorine (F) atoms. Phosphorus has 5 valence electrons, and each fluorine atom has 7 valence electrons, contributing a total of 42 electrons from the six fluorine atoms. Adding the 5 from phosphorus and accounting for the extra electron due to the negative charge, the total number of valence electrons in PF6⁻ is 48.


If calcium has two valence electrons and fluorine has seven how many fluorine atoms are needed to form an ionic bond with calcium?

Two fluorine atoms are needed to form an ionic bond with calcium, as each fluorine atom will contribute one electron to satisfy calcium's two valence electrons.


How many valence electrons are in PF?

There are 15 electrons in phosphorus, 45 electrons from five fluorine atoms, and they make 60 electrons altogether.

How many electrons surround the central you atom in IF3?

In IF3, iodine (I) has 7 valence electrons and each fluorine (F) has 7 valence electrons. Thus, the central iodine atom in IF3 is surrounded by 21 electrons from the three fluorine atoms (7 electrons each).


How many additional valence electrons does fluorine need to have a full valence?

I believe you are talking about fluorine. If you are, F needs one more electron to gain a full shell.If you go to WikiAnswers for this information, that is counterproductive, because there is a much better way to do it. Look at the periodic table. Groups IA through VIIIA tell you what you need to know. IA has one valence electron, IIA has two valence electrons etc. Fluorine is in group VIIA and therefore has seven valence electrons. All atoms want eight, and thus fluorine is in need of one more.
