I just learned this in chemistry. The general trends in the Periodic Table for atomic radii , a.k.a. half the distance between the centers of the nuclei of two atoms are as follows : atomic radii tend to become larger going down a group in the periodic table and also larger going left to right across a period. Essentially the higher the atomic # the more electrons, which means that there are more electrons in the farther electron orbitals. Due to the increase in the # of electrons, the nuclear charge/ charge of the nucleus has less of an effect on the outer electrons and thus the outer electrons are allowed to go out farther, which in turn allows for a greater atomic radii and thus a larger atom. Finally to answer your question Flourine would be a larger atom than Carbon. Hopefully I was of some help, and good luck!
Two fluorine atoms one chlorine atom and one phosphorus atom make up PClF2.
PClF2 is made up of two fluorine atoms one chlorine atom and one phosphorus atom.
The formula for chlorine trifluoride is ClF3
Chlorine trifluoride (ClF3) is polar due to the asymmetrical arrangement of the fluorine atoms around the central chlorine atom. The difference in electronegativity between chlorine and fluorine results in a net dipole moment, making the molecule polar.
First of all fluoride and fluorine ("u" in the spelling) are two different things.A fluoride ion is derived from fluorine by stripping one electron from a fluorine molecule (or atom).Looks like your curious about fluoridation of water. Don't get lost in the unfounded science.Fluoride also come in two forms. Organic and inorganic. Inorganic is not harmful to humansand that is what is in toothpaste (and other oral products) and in some water supplies.Organic fluoride is what is in poisons and pesticides. Inorganic fluoride is being replaced with better agents but that's another story.

PClF2 is made up of two fluorine atoms one chlorine atom and one phosphorus atom.
Iodine is the biggest atom among bromine, fluorine, chlorine and iodine as it has the highest atomic number and atomic radius.
A sulfur atom is larger than an oxygen atom.
Iodine is a bigger atom than chlorine because it has more electrons and atomic radius.
Iodine is the largest atom among bromine, fluorine, iodine, and chlorine. It has more electron shells and a larger atomic radius compared to the other three elements.
Refrigerant R-11, or trichlorofluoromethane (CCl3F), contains one carbon atom, one fluorine atom, and three chlorine atoms. Therefore, it does not contain any hydrogen atoms. To summarize, R-11 has one carbon atom, one fluorine atom, and three chlorine atoms.
Chlorine and Fluorine generally do not react with each other, because they are in the same family, but they do form a highly reactive mixture. If the atoms happen to combine, I would assume you would get a Chlorine Monofluoride molecule, because chlorine and fluorine both have 7 valance eletrons, so they might share one, and it would look like this Cl-F they would share an electron, like F2, or Cl2 do.
The formula for chlorine trifluoride is ClF3
No, the chemical ratio of carbon to chlorine to fluorine in CCl2F2 is 1:2:2, meaning there is 1 carbon atom, 2 chlorine atoms, and 2 fluorine atoms in each molecule of CCl2F2.
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.
Fluorine is more electronegative than lithium and chlorine because it has a greater nuclear charge and a smaller atomic size. These factors result in a stronger attraction for electrons in the fluorine atom, making it more electronegative compared to lithium and chlorine.
