  2. Fluorine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine_compounds

    Fluorine's chemistry is dominated by its strong tendency to gain an electron. It is the most electronegative element and elemental fluorine is a strong oxidant. The removal of an electron from a fluorine atom requires so much energy that no known reagents are known to oxidize fluorine to any positive oxidation state. [20]

  3. Fluorine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine

    Fluorine is a chemical element; it has symbol F and atomic number 9. It is the lightest halogen [note 1] and exists at standard conditions as pale yellow diatomic gas. Fluorine is extremely reactive as it reacts with all other elements except for the light inert gases. It is highly toxic.

  4. HSAB theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSAB_theory

    An application of HSAB theory is the so-called Kornblum's rule (after Nathan Kornblum) which states that in reactions with ambident nucleophiles (nucleophiles that can attack from two or more places), the more electronegative atom reacts when the reaction mechanism is S N 1 and the less electronegative one in a S N 2 reaction.

  5. Bent's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent's_rule

    Fluorine is highly electronegative, resulting in this significant decrease in bond angle. In predicting the bond angle of water, Bent's rule suggests that hybrid orbitals with more s character should be directed towards the lone pairs, while that leaves orbitals with more p character directed towards the hydrogens, resulting in deviation from ...

    Beat Saber is a 2019 virtual reality rhythm game developed by Ján Ilavský, Vladimír Hrinčár, and Peter Hrinčár. The game was published by Czech game developer Beat Games and was later obtained by Oculus Studios. It takes place in many different surrealistic neon environments and features the player slicing blocks representing musical ...

    Meanwhile, prior research has shown that more than a fifth of Americans wear a smartwatch or a fitness tracker — and they do so for extended periods of time, the authors noted.

  8. Fluorine cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine_cycle

    Fluorine is the thirteenth most abundant element on Earth and the 24th most abundant element in the universe. It is the most electronegative element and it is highly reactive. Thus, it is rarely found in its elemental state, although elemental fluorine has been identified in certain geochemical contexts. [3]

    The Detroit Lions have a seemingly endless bucket of trick plays to pick from. Earlier this season, they ran a hook-and-ladder play to Penei Sewell, their fantastic 335-pound left tackle.
