12 Fluorine can form either covalent or ionic bonds. Draw a dot-and-cross diagram to show the bonding in i) sodium fluoride, NaF ii) fluorine, F2 Your diagrams must show all the electrons. 13. The diagram below shows the outer shell electrons of an atom of element X. 4 4

a) To which group of the Periodic table does X belong? b) Draw a dot and cross diagram to show the bonding in the compound of X with carbon. Your diagram should show outer electrons only. c) (i) Write the formula for the compound of element X with sodium. (ii) Predict the type of bonding present in the compound of X with sodium. 14. Magnesium reacts with chlorine to form the ionic compound magnesium chloride. 4 a) Draw a dot and cross diagram to show the bonding in magnesium chloride. You only need to draw the outer (valence) electrons of magnesium and of chlorine. b) The physical properties of a compound are related to its structure and bonding. Magnesium chloride has an ionic lattice structure. Suggest two physical properties of magnesium chloride. 15. Tritium is an isotope of hydrogen. An ion of tritium has the following structure. 5
