How many electrons and protons are in a F ion?
A fluorine atom has nine protons and nine electrons, so it is electrically neutral. If a fluorine atom gains an electron, it becomes a fluoride ion with an electric charge of -1.
What is the ion F?
fluoride ion
Having a chemical formula of F−, fluoride ion is the simplest inorganic, monatomic anion of fluorine with basic properties. It is considered a trace element.
How many electrons would F have?
p: 3 orbitals, 6 electrons. d: 5 orbitals, 10 electrons. f: 7 orbitals, 14 electrons.
How many electrons are in Al?
thirteen electrons
Electron Configuration of Aluminum Since aluminum’s atomic number is thirteen, it has thirteen electrons.
Can fluorine have 10 electrons?
F− is a fluorine atom that has gained an electron to form a negative ion. Fluorine has an atomic number of 9 and so therefore in a neutral state, one atom of fluorine has 9 protons and 9 electrons. If we gain an electron we have 10 electrons (same as a Na+ ion). The element with an atomic number of 10 is Neon (Ne).
How many neutrons does f have?
10 neutrons
Because in each fluorine nucleus, there are necessarily 9 protons , why necessarily?, there must be 10 neutrons, neutral massive particles, in the fluorine nucleus.
How many neutrons does F have?
Why does Al have 10 electrons?
This is because the element’s atomic number is 13, reflecting the fact that it has 13 electrons and 13 protons. The valence shell of aluminum has three electrons, and per the octet rule, these three electrons are lost resulting in just 10 electrons and 13 protons.
How many electrons can fit in an F sublevel?
There are seven orbitals in the f sublevel. Each orbital can hold up to two electrons therefore the s sublevel can hold 2 electrons, the p sublevel can hold up to 6 electrons, the d sublevel can hold up to 10 electrons, and the f sublevel can hold up to 14 electrons.
What element has 25 protons and 30 neutrons?
Unless you mistyped the question, the answer should be #25+#. Basic atomic structure has protons and neutrons located in the nucleus and electrons surrounding the nucleus. Your atom is said to contain #25# protons and #30# neutrons in its nucleus. As you know, protons are positively charged particles.
How many electrons can occupy the f orbital?
The f orbital has 7 sub levels with the possibility of two electrons in each suborbital. Therefore, the f orbital can hold 14 electrons.
What is the number of protons in F?
If the ion has a 1- charge (simply written with a minus superscript), then there are more electrons than the number of protons. For F-, the number of protons (from the periodic table) is 9 and the number of electrons is: 9 + 1 = 10 electrons.
