BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Explain which compound(s) could produce fluoride ions in the water. In response, be sure to include:

• Which of the listed compounds are ionic and which are covalent.

• How ionic and covalent compounds are different.

• Why only ionic compounds would produce fluoride in water.​

Respuesta :

Answer: NaF is ionic. NF3 is covalent. SiF4 is ionic. CaF2 is Ionic and  NH4F is also ionic. Ionic compounds transfer electrons whereas covalent compounds share electrons hence the word "co". Also, ionic compounds are formed with metal and nonmetal. Where a covalent is with 2 nonmetals. Only ionic compounds would produce fluoride in water because ionic compounds can dissolve in water and covalent compounds cant.
