Which element is a member of the halogens family?
flourine, chlorine, iodine, bromine, astatine
Is Tetrafluoroethane is NON-CFC gas?
Yes. Tetrafluoroethane is a non-CFC gas. CFCs are chlorfluorocarbons which contain both chlorine and fluorine. Tetrafluoroethane does not contain chlorine.
Do halogen names typically end in -ine?
Yes, they all end in "ine": Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, Astatine.
What is the most reactive non-metal?
The most reactive non-metal is fluorine. It is often nicknamed the 'Tyrannosaurus Rex' of the elements because of its reactivity. NB . Oxygen ,which we breath, is also a very reactive element. If it wasn't so reactive we would probably die.
What are 8 diatomic elements?
The 7 elements that readily form diatomic molecules are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and Iodine. Astatine might theoretically form diatomic molecules, but it is so rare and radioactive that it is hard to study.
Is the bond between fluorine and chlorine nonpolar covalent?
The electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and for fluorine it is 3.98. The difference in electronegativities is 0.54, so the bond between fluorine and oxygen is polar covalent.
Which bond is more polar a phosphorus fcholrine bond or a phosphorus fluorine bond?
A phosphorus-fluorine bond is more polar than a phosphorus-chlorine bond. Fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine, so it withdraws electrons more strongly in a covalent bond, resulting in a greater difference in electronegativity between phosphorus and fluorine compared to phosphorus and chlorine.
Is a ionic compound likely to form between fluorine and chlorine?
No, fluorine and chlorine are both nonmetals with a high electronegativity difference, so they are more likely to form a covalent bond rather than an ionic compound.
Is chlorine trifluoride CIF3 polar or nonpolar?
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.
What is the balanced equation of chlorine and fluorine?
The balanced equation for the reaction between chlorine and fluorine is: Cl2 + F2 → 2ClF
How does fluorine's electronegativity compare to the electronegativity of oxygen and chlorine?
Fluorine is more electronegative than oxygen and chlorine. There are many scales used to measure electronegativity. Each is different. Oxygen and chlorine usually have an electronegativity value between 3.2 and 3.5 depending on the scale. Fluorine has an electronegativity of 4, the highest number on the scale. This means that the difference in electronegativity of fluorine and oxygen or chlorine is between 0.5 and 0.8 depending on the scale. This is the amount necessary to form a polar covalent bond.
Is chlorine pentaflouride iconic or covalent?
Chlorine pentafluoride is a covalent compound because it consists of a shared pair of electrons between the chlorine and fluorine atoms.
Which is more electro negative fluorine or chlorine?
Fluorine.
Is Fluorine harmfuly?
Learn the difference between an adverb and an adjective. Yes, fluorine is harmful.
Is a ionic compound likely to form between fluorine and chlorine why or why not?
No, they form a covalent compound because there is not a great enough difference in electronegativity for one element to completely pull the electrons away from the other.
What kind of bond will form form between chlorine form fluorine?
A covalent bond will form between chlorine and fluorine because they both are non-metals which have similar electronegativities, which results in the sharing of electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Which element has characteristics most similar to fluorine?
Chlorine has characteristics most similar to fluorine because they are both in the same group (group 17) of the periodic table. They have similar chemical properties such as high electronegativity and reactivity.
