-1:
Ions such as fluorine always have a Negative charge- when looking at the Periodic Table you will see groups 8,7,6,5,4 and 3 on the right side. All noble gases in Group 8 have no charge, but going to the left:
7 = -1 charge
6 = -2 charge
5 = -3 charge
4 = -4 charge
This only works for nonmetals, not transition metals so be careful.
So, looking at Fluorine it is in Group 7
7 Nonmetals always have a -1 charge.
-1 is the correct answer.
If you are asked to find the charge of 2 or more F ions, multiple the number of ions by -1.
Good luck :)

Which element when combined with fluorine most likely form an ionic compound?
Generally all metals, but mostly Alkali metals. This is because Alkali metals have a 1+ charge, and Fluorine has a 1- charge.

What element when combined with fluorine would most likely from an ionic compound?
any element that is a non metal will do
Fluorine is the most electronegative element therefore when it forms bonds with another element the electrons are?
more likely to be pulled towards the fluorine atom. This results in a polar covalent bond, with the fluorine atom having a partial negative charge and the other element having a partial positive charge.
What is the formal charge for H3S?
Such an ion would most likely carry a 1+ charge.
To become more stable fluorine is likely to?
To become more stable, fluorine is most likely to gain 1 electron and form F- ion.
What is the most likely element to pair with calcium?
Fluorine and oxygen
