Calcium fluoride or CaF2 is comprised of two elements: calcium (Ca) and fluoride (F). One molecule of CaF2 thus contains two atoms of F and one of Ca for a total of three.
3CaF2
In one molecule, calcium fluoride has:
1 calcium atom
2 fluorine atoms
3 atoms total
Because there is a three in the front of the formula, it means there are three of those molecules. So if one molecule has 3 atoms, 3 molecules will have 9 atoms total.
Calcium fluoride molecule has 1 calcium atom and 2 fluorine atoms. But they are ionized, 2 electrons from the calcium have hopped across, 1 to each fluorine.
There is 1 Calcium atom (Ca) and 2 Fluorine atoms (F), so a total of 3.

7.92 grams calcium fluoride (1 mole CaF2/78.08 grams)(6.022 X 1023/1 mole CaF2) = 6.11 X 1022 atoms of calcium fluoride --------------------------------------------------
The chemical formula for zinc floride is ZnF2. Thus, a single molecule of zinc floride contains one zinc atom and two floride atoms, for a total of three atoms.
Two fluorine atoms. the formula of calcium fluoride is 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.
The formula is CaF2 so, its three atoms, one calcium and two fluorine atoms. add the molar mass of calcium(40 g/mol) and fluorine(19 g/mol X 2 because there are two atoms of fluorine) and you get 40+(19x2)=78 78 grams per mol

7.92 grams calcium fluoride (1 mole CaF2/78.08 grams)(6.022 X 1023/1 mole CaF2) = 6.11 X 1022 atoms of calcium fluoride --------------------------------------------------
The chemical formula for zinc floride is ZnF2. Thus, a single molecule of zinc floride contains one zinc atom and two floride atoms, for a total of three atoms.
CaF2
1 mole CaF2 = 78.074g CaF2 0.06mol CaF2 x 78.074g CaF2/mol CaF2 = 5g CaF2 (rounded to 1 significant figure)
Two fluorine atoms. the formula of calcium fluoride is CaF2.
The formula mass of CaF2 is 40.1 + 2(19.0) = 78.1 Amount of CaF2 = 58.2/78.1 = 0.745mol
Calcium fluoride is CaF2, and aluminium sulfide is Al2S3. All numbers should be subscripts.
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.
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)
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
