  2. 9 F 19 Uses Of Fluorine! • In small amounts, fluorides in water sources prevent tooth decay. An ingredient of toothpaste for the same reason. • Solidifying fluoride in drinking water may cause bad spots in of teeth of kids getting permanent teeth. • Fluorine and its compounds are used to produce uranium. • Fluorine is used to produce many chemicals, including several high-temperature plastics. • A certain amount of sodium fluoride in drinking water may cause problems in teeth, your skeletal bones, and may be associated with cancer and other diseases.

  3. Properties Of Fluorine! • Fluorine has a melting point of -219.62°C • Boiling point of -188.14°C • Specific gravity of liquid of 1.108 at its boiling point • Fluorine is a corrosive pale yellow gas • It is highly reactive, participating in reactions with virtually all organic and inorganic substances. • Fluorine is the most electronegative element. • Metals, glass, ceramics, carbon, and water will burn with a bright flame in fluorine.

  4. Name and Origin • Came from the Latin and French word fluere meaning flow. • Was found by Moissan in the year 1886. • Can be found naturally in rocks, clay, and coal. • Is also used in toothpaste.
