Write the electron configuration diagram that shows the transfer of electrons that takes place to form the compound sodium
fluoride. Include the electron configurations of the ions formed.

Respuesta :

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Now the element sodium has electronic configuration of [Ne]3s1

Florine has an electronic configuration of [He] 2p5

We know that in the formation of sodium flouride, sodium looses one electron to form Na^+ while F gains one electron to form F^-. So the electronic configuration of both Na^+ and F^- now become;  1s2 2s2 2p6
