Enthalpy of Fusion of Fluorine (F) + Color, Sources, Discovery ... 2022

Energy and heat may change a substance's state from solid to liquid (Fusion). Such energy may be called enthalpy of fusion and it is important even for Fluorine. Ok, so what is the enthalpy of fusion for an atom of F?

Note: Learn more about the enthalpy of fusion here.

In the case of Fluorine, enthalpy of fusion is .510 Kilojoules per mole. There are non heat related facts about Fluorine that you might like to know. I'll walk you through...

Fluorine Facts

Sources

Found in the minerals fluorite (CaF2) and cryolite(Na3AlF6). Electrolysis of hydrofluoric acid (HF) or potassium acid fluoride (KHF2) is the only practical method of commercial production.

Description

Greenish-yellow, pungent, corrosive gas. Extremely reactive. Does not occur uncombined in nature.

Atomic Symbol

F

Name Origin

Latin: fluere (flow).

Atomic Number

9

Citation

When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.

To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:

Luz, Gelson. "Enthalpy of Fusion of Fluorine (F) + Color, Sources, Discovery ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>

Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
