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

If calcium has two valence electrons and fluorine has seven how many fluorine atoms are needed to form an ionic bond with calcium?
two
What is the compound name of a sulfur atom and six fluorine atoms share electrons?
The compound name of a sulfur atom and six fluorine atoms that share electrons is Sulfur hexafluoride.
Which atoms has the greatest attraction for electrons A. Carbon B. Fluorine C. Iodine D. Oxygen?
Fluorine.
How is the electron configuration of Sulfur consistent with the formation of Na2S and SF6?
Sulfur has six valence electrons and can therefore attain an inert gas configuration in two different ways: by accepting two electrons to attain the electron configuration of argon or donating or sharing six electrons to attain the electron configuration of neon. In combination with the much less electronegative element sodium, sulfur accepts one electron from each of two sodium atoms to form the ionic compound Na2S, but in combination with the more electronegative element fluorine, sulfur shares its six valence electrons with each of six fluorine atoms to form six polar covalent bonds with fluorine.
What the total number of electrons in a neutral atom of fluorine?
Fluorine has the atomic number of 9. This means it has 9 protons in the nuclei of its atoms. So, a neutral fluorine atom would also have 9 electrons.
How many valence electrons in a fluorine atom will fluorine atoms form bonds Explain.?
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 valence electrons are in PF?
There are 15 electrons in phosphorus, 45 electrons from five fluorine atoms, and they make 60 electrons altogether.
If calcium has two valence electrons and fluorine has seven how many fluorine atoms are needed to form an ionic bond with calcium?
two
If calcium has two valence electrons and fluorine has seven how many fluorine atoms are needed to form and ionic bond with calcium?

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

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.
What atoms have seven electrons in their outermost energy levels?
All halogens (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine) have 7 valence electrons.
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.
Electrons involved in bonding atoms are?
valence electrons
Does BiF3 have a ionic or covalent bond?
An ionic bond takes place when one atom gives up an electron to another atom in order to have a stable valence. Whereas covalent bonds share electrons to sustain a stable valence. The Bohr diagram for Bismuth would be: Bi)2e-)8e-)18e-)32e-)18e-)5e- & Fluorine would be: F)2e-)7e- The valence for Bismuth has 5 electrons and Fluorine has 7 electrons, hence Bismuth requires 3 more electrons and Fluorine needs 1 more electron to become an octet. Therefore, to balance BiF3: for one Bismuth atom you will need 3 Fluorine atoms attached, both atoms will share the electrons to satisfy a complete octet in the valence for both atoms.
What The double bond between carbon atom and two oxygen atoms has two characteristics what are they?

What are an atoms outermost electrons?
