What is the name and formula for a compound whose molecules each contain 3 fluorine atoms and one boron atom?
sib1p4
Why is fluorine oxidation state never positive?
An atom of fluorine has the greatest attraction among all atoms for electrons; therefore, no other atom can extract an electron from a fluorine atom, as would be required for the fluorine to have a positive oxidation state.
Why doesn't the compound CH3F contain hydrogen bonding?
CH3F contains no covalently bonded hydrogen atoms DIRECTLY to the Fluorine.
Is CH3F covalent?
Yes, as there are no metals in this compound.
What is CH3-CH2F?
Fluoromethane, CH3F, contains 1 Carbon, 3 Hydrogen and 1 Fluorine atom bond together to the central Carbon.
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.
How many atoms of fluorine will combine with 1 atom of aluminum in a compound?
3 Fluorine atoms are required for 1 aluminum atom.
Will a compound of one hydrogen atom and one fluorine atom be a polar molecule?
yes
Compound with one calcium atom and two fluorine?
Calcium fluoride.
What elements are in hydrogen fluride?
Hydrogen and fluorine. One of each atom in the compound.
What is the oxidation number of CH3F?
Oxidation numbers are a characteristic of individual atoms within a molecule, not of the molecule itself. In fluoromethane, the compound given by formula in the problem statement, carbon is assigned an oxidation number of +4 and each hydrogen or fluorine atom is assigned an oxidation number of -1. Note, however, that the compound is covalently bonded, so that these oxidization numbers do not represent complete transfer of electrons from the carbon atom to the other atoms.
Certain compound is made up of two fluorine atoms one chlorine atom and one phosphorus atom?
PClF2 is made up of two fluorine atoms one chlorine atom and one phosphorus atom.
What is the correct formula for aluminum and fluorine form a compound in which the aluminum to fluorine ratio is?
Aluminum fluoride is AlF3. It has 3 fluorine atoms for each aluminum atom.
What is the name of the compound when sulfur atom and six fluorine share electrons?
Sulfur hexafluoride
