1. Calcium fluoride (fluorspar or fluorite) is a partially
soluble ionic compound used in metallurgy, particularly
in aluminum and steel production. When placed in
water, the solid is in equilibrium with its ions.
a. Write a balanced equation to show this
equilibrium.
b. What happens to the position of equilibrium if
soluble calcium chloride is added to the solution
of calcium fluoride?
C. What will happen to the equilibrium concentration
of F- when calcium chloride is added?

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.
