It has something to do with pharmaceutical calculations and ratios for mixing drugs within other solubles. In this case, 0.14% w/v fluoride ion means it contains .14% "weight by volume" of fluoride in ratio to the other ingredients. There are other abbreviations that you may have seen on other common things in your home such w/w or v/v (weight by weight and volume by volume, respectively).

What happens when a lithium ion is attracted to an fluoride ion?

When a lithium ion is attracted to a fluoride ion, they may form an ionic bond to create lithium fluoride. The positively charged lithium ion is attracted to the negatively charged fluoride ion due to their opposite charges. This bond is typically strong and stable.


Chemical formula of a fluoride atom?

'Fluoride atom'. ???? The fluorine ATOM is 'F' The fluorine molecule is 'F2'. The Fluoride ION is 'F^-' NB When an atom becomes a charged species, it is no longer an atom , but an ION. The suffix '--ide' indicates it is an ion, not an atom. So 'Fluoride atom' is a nonsense. It is either 'Fluoride ion' or Fluorine atom'.


What is the differences between a sodium ion and fluoride ion?

Sodium ion (Na+) has a positive charge, while fluoride ion (F-) has a negative charge. Sodium ion is larger in size compared to fluoride ion due to fewer protons and electrons in its structure. Sodium ion is essential for nerve function and muscle contraction, while fluoride ion is commonly found in toothpaste and water for dental health.
