what type of bond is formed between carbon and fluorine?

The carbon–fluorine bond is a polar covalent bond between carbon and fluorine that is a component of all organofluorine compounds. It is one of the strongest single bonds in organic chemistry—behind the B-F single bond, Si-F single bond and the H-F single bond, and relatively short—due to its partial ionic character.

Carbon most often forms a covalent bond with other atoms. If the bond is with another carbon atom, it is a pure covalent (or nonpolar covalent) bond. If it is with another atom, a polar covalent bond is formed.

The bonds between C and the four Cl atoms are covalent with sp3 hybridization to the central atom. The geometrical structure of CCl4 is tetrahedral. Each covalent bond in this molecule is polar because of the difference in electronegativity between carbon and chloride atom.

Look at the chemical formula of interest. It is CF4, meaning that ONE MOLE of CF4 contains ONE MOLE of C (carbon) and FOUR MOLES of F (fluorine).

However, because of the TETRAHEDRAL arrangement of the C – F bonds, the bond moments cancel exactly, so that CF4 has a ZERO total permanent dipole moment. Thus, CF4 will NOT show dipole-dipole interactions .

Hydrogen bond is formed only by the three highly electronegative elements- fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen. So, hydrogen bonding is possible only in those compounds in which the hydrogen atom is directly bonded to fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen.

Polar covalent bond or partially ionic covalent bond. HF is a polar molecule in which H-F bond is a polar covalent bond due to unequal sharing of electrons between more electronegative F and less electronegative H atoms.

A covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms rather than by the complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another. Two shared electrons are a single bond , four are a double bond, and six are a triple bond. The group of atoms held together by covalent bonds is called a molecule.

There is a difference in electronegativity between Xe and F, so the Xe-F bonds are polar covalent. XeF4 has a square planar shape, due to the repulsions between four bonding regions and two non-bonding regions of charge; therefore the polarities/dipoles do cancel. As a result, XeF4 is a non-polar molecule.

Fluorine has seven valence electrons and usually forms the F – ion because it gains one electron to satisfy the octet rule.

Beryllium Fluoride Two fluorine (F) atoms can also bond with one beryllium (Be) atom, making the formula BeF2. Beryllium gives up one of it's electrons to each of the fluorine atoms. The result give each of the fluorines eight electrons, making their shells full.

Cations and Anions One example of an ionic bond is the formation of sodium fluoride, NaF, from a sodium atom and a fluorine atom. In this reaction, the sodium atom loses its single valence electron to the fluorine atom, which has just enough space to accept it.

The ClF bond is a polar covalent bond and the molecule has a net dipole moment (unlike CCl4 for instance where the bond dipoles cancel giving the molecule no net dipole moment). The intermolecular interactions will be made up of dipole-dipole interactions and dispersion interactions.

Hydrogen fluoride is formed through covalent bonding (electron sharing) between a hydrogen atom and a fluorine atom. Hydrogen contains one electron, and fluorine requires one electron to become stable, so the bond forms readily when the two elements interact.

Fluorine gas consists of F2 molecules with a single F-F bond between atoms. Its hydrogen compound is hydrogen fluoride, HF, in which the F atom is surrounded by three lone pairs and one bonding pair (see right).

“At ambient pressure XeF2 is a linear molecule with two covalent Xe-F bonds. We found that when you squeeze it sufficiently hard it chooses to sacrifice one of its bonds and forms an ionic structure. This enables the atoms to pack better and therefore lower free energy” – says Grochala.

Covalently sharing two electrons is also known as a “single bond.” Carbon will have to form four single bonds with four different fluorine atoms to fill its octet. The result is CF4 or carbon tetrafluoride.
