It is not an element, but is a ion
Fluoride ion (F-) is not an element, but an ion formed from the element fluorine (F). Fluorine is a chemical element on the periodic table, while fluoride ion is a negatively charged particle resulting from the gain of an electron by a fluorine atom.
Sodium Fluoride is an Ionic Compound. It's Fluorine and Sodium with the formula NaF.
Formula: XF3 where X is the element with which fluorine is bonded
Sodium has the electron configuration of neon.
Fluorine is a name for the gas and the ion without the extra electron that fluorine will rip from any other (non-noble gas) element. F0 or F2 Fluoride is the name for the fluorine negatively charged ion. F-

Fluoride is an ion of the element fluorine. So it is not a compound. However sometimes the compound sodium fluoride, a common ingredient in toothpaste, is simply referred to a fluoride.
Sodium Fluoride is an Ionic Compound. It's Fluorine and Sodium with the formula NaF.

compound
Fluoride is a negatively charged ion of the element fluorine. Fluorine is a naturally occurring element, while fluoride is typically found in compounds like toothpaste and water. So they are not the same thing, but they are related.
Fluoride is the ion of fluorine, which is a nonmetal.
Fluoride itself is a monatmic ion of the element fluorine. It must be paired with a positive ion to form a compound. The fluoride in toothpaste is sodium fluoride. Some people confuse fluoride with the mineral fluorite (calcium fluoride), which is a compound.
Its is an Ionic compound
Fluoride.
No, it is a compound made of two elements: fluorine and potassium.
