Interpretation:
The name and formula of the fluoride in toothpaste to be identified
Concept Introduction:
Fluorides in toothpaste: Fluorides are active ingredient in toothpaste to prevent cavities.
The symbolic representation of ions:
The electrons are reside in the principal quantum number ‘n’; by losing and gaining electron, reduces and increases in the electron count in the electronic configuration of the atom; for a cation adding positive charge as a superscript to the symbol of the element and for the anion adding negative charge as superscript to the symbol of the element.
