In Chemistry... So I am not sure how to explain this but when I was told to cross out 1- in Ionic Bonds. Such as (for example) K^1+ and F ^-1 We are supposed to cross out the one's and forget about them, So In my equation Which I stated Above as an example, Would that mean the answer is ... (answer posted in chat)

Astrid1:

\[K _{1}F ~ or KF\]

Astrid1:

Ik the second part of the answer is Pottasium Fluoride.

lowkey:

What are you talking about

Astrid1:

Well, I am not sure whether or not I am to cut out all 1's in the equation.

Astrid1:

Even after I have solved for the answer.

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Astrid1 \[K _{1}F ~ or KF\] \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) This?

Astrid1:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @lowkey \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Astrid1 \[K _{1}F ~ or KF\] \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) This? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) That one would be my answer, I think the answer may be the one on the left but then again I was taught to eliminate all 1's.

lowkey:

The answer is on the right

Astrid1:

lowkey:

No problem, good luck
