Feb 27, 2014 · It seems related to the atomic size but hydrogen has a smaller atomic size than fluorine. Why is fluorine the most electronegative atom?

Nov 12, 2013 · Fluorine, though higher than chlorine in the periodic table, has a very small atomic size. This makes the fluoride anion so formed unstable (highly reactive) due to a very high charge/mass …

In this case, the formation of fluorine-containing products is generally much more thermodynamically favourable than that of the corresponding iodine-containing products.

Dec 18, 2023 · 6 Fluorine in hydrogen fluoride can form only a limited amount of hydrogen bonds because there is only one (protic) hydrogen atom per fluorine. Ammonium fluoride has enough protic …

Apr 13, 2021 · 7 What is the nature of the reaction of attack of fluorine gas on aluminium metal? Is it spontaneous in nature? I have studied reactions of halogens on aluminium, but it had no information …

Jan 26, 2025 · Fluorine has the highest electronegativity (EN) and reduction potential, meaning it typically withdraws electrons via inductive effects when reacting with other species. However, in the …

May 22, 2015 · However, I'm confused with the fluoride ion having a charge of -1 and fluorine only occurring as a diatomic molecule ($\ce {F2}$). Is $\ce {F2}$ two fluoride ions or just one?

Apr 27, 2018 · Why only fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen can form hydrogen-bonds with the hydrogen of another molecule?

Feb 16, 2017 · This is shielding. Lastly, fluorine is much smaller molecule than chlorine, and the shorter distance, or radius, between the nucleus and the electron again makes it more likely to attract the …

Jan 3, 2017 · The partial charges on the fluorine and carbon are attractive, contributing to the unusual bond strength of the carbon–fluorine bond. The bond is labeled as " the strongest in organic …
