Given :

A chemical compound [tex]KF_2[/tex] .

To Find :

Fix the formula for [tex]KF_2[/tex] and write the full correct formula.

Solution :

We know, Potassium( K ) and Fluorine( F ) both have a valency of 1 i.e potassium can donate one electron and Fluorine can accept one electron only.

So, the chemical formula [tex]KF_2[/tex] is wrong because no element has filled electron.

Therefore, to stabilise the molecule, 1 Potassium atom should make a bond from 1 Fluorine i.e KF ( correct formula ) .

Hence, this is the required solution.
