1 mole CaF2 = 78.074g CaF2 0.06mol CaF2 x 78.074g CaF2/mol CaF2 = 5g CaF2 (rounded to 1 significant figure)
CaF2.
Formula: CaF2
which of the following substances is least likely to be ionic : a) nh3 b) caf2 c) na2o )mg br2
Ca+2 F-1 <----- these are the ions and their charges Ca+2 F-1 F-1 <----- the charges have to add up to zero, so two -1 fluorine ions cancel out one +2 calcium ions CaF2 <---- simplify
1 mole CaF2 = 78.074g CaF2 0.06mol CaF2 x 78.074g CaF2/mol CaF2 = 5g CaF2 (rounded to 1 significant figure)
The bonding in calcium fluoride (not "flouride") is ionic, not covalent.
Ca 2+ and F - Bond together to form CaF2 Which is Calcium fluoride -----------------------
CaF2 is calcium fluoride.
Of these choices:a. Ca(s) + F2(g) → CaF2(s)b. Ca(g) + F2(g) → CaF2(s)c. Ca2+(g) + 2F−(g) → CaF2(s)d. Ca(g) + 2F(g) → CaF2(s)
CaF2.
yes
Its is an Ionic compound
calcium flouride
ionic
Formula: CaF2
The reason it becomes stable is because Ca has 2 valence electrons that it wants to get rid of to become stable. F has 7 valence electrons and wants 1 more to become stable. So, TWO F atoms each take 1 of the 2 electrons from Ca. They form an ionic bond as Ca^2+ and 2F^- to make CaF2.
