What Is The Chemical Formula For Sodium Flourine?
The elemental symbol for Sodium is Na and Flourine F. Na has a charge of 1+ and F has a charge of 1-, this means that Na is capable of losing one electron and F is capable of gaining one electron. When chemical equations are balanced for charge, as in the case of Group 1A and 2A metals the charges are added to the charge of the species they are bonded with resulting in a weak attraction referred to as an ionic bond. The resulting chemical formula is NaF.
