"On the Lewis Structure of Aluminum Fluorination"
The universal thing is related to the combination of aluminum and fluorine. The study of its structure is based on Lewis's method.
Aluminum, the genus of metals, has three electrons in its outer layer. Fluoride, the element of the halogen group, is active, and the outer layer has seven electrons. It wants to obtain one electron and reach the stability of the octet.
When aluminum and fluoride combine, aluminum is willing to divide into the trifluoride atom with its outer three electrons. Each fluorine atom obtains one electron of aluminum, which forms an octet. Aluminum loses three electrons and forms a cation. Fluoride obtains electrons and forms an anion.
The shape of this compound is represented by the Lewis structure. Aluminum is in the center, and the trifluorine atomic ring is in the. Between aluminum and each fluorine, the covalent bond is represented by a short line, which is formed by an electron pair. Around the fluorine atom, the dots represent the rest of the unbonded electrons. In this way, the Lewis structure of aluminum fluoridation is clear.
The analysis of this structure is of great benefit to the understanding of the properties of substances and the principle of chemical reaction. Scholars should study it in detail to explore the mystery of chemistry.
