2.1 Physico-chemical properties
Under normal conditions of temperature and pressure, fluorine is a pale yellow gas with a pungent odor. With atomic number Z = 9, it occupies the square next to neon in the periodic table, where it is the first of the halogens.
It was discovered just over a century ago by French chemist Henri Moissan, during the electrolysis of a solution of potassium fluoride in anhydrous hydrogen fluoride.
The relative atomic mass of fluorine is 18.9984032 (IUPAC 1993).
The energy value of the bond is 158.3 kJ/mol. This low value contributes to the highly exothermic nature...
