How many protons dose fluoride have?

Answer 1

There are 9 protons and 9 electrons in a fluorine atom The only stable isotope has 10 neutrons

Answer 2

Every fluoride ion contains 9 protons. The only common ion of fluorine has a single negative charge, indicating that it contains one more electron than proton, or 10 electrons. The number of neutrons is the mass number minus the atomic number (same as the number of protons). The most common isotope of fluorine is F-19, which contains 19 - 9 = 10 neutrons.

Answer 3

A fluoride ion is a fluorine atom with one extra electron that it has borrowed from some other atom. It turns out that every fluorine atom has 9 protons, and all fluorine ions, which are F- ions, will have 9 protons as well. Proton count does not vary among atoms of a given element, regardless of whether or not they are neutral atoms or ions of any kind.

Answer 4

The atomic number of fluorine is 9; therefore, a fluorine atom contains 9 protons, and all of them are retained in a fluoride ion.

Answer 5

9 protons which is its atomic number. # of protons = elements atomic #

Answer 6

Ionisation does not change the number of protons so there are 9 protons.

Answer 7

It has 9 protons.
