The formation of lithium fluoride (seen here) is due to a) a stronger pull by the lithium atom on its valence electron. b) increased stability in the completion of fluorine's outer shell. c) the addition of an outer (higher) energy level in the fluoride ion. d) decreased attraction attraction between the lithium and fluoride ions.

Correct

Lithium fluoride is created due to the increased stability in the completion of fluorine's outer shell. By moving one electron from lithium, its outer shell is now full (with two). Additionally, by adding this electron to fluorine, it gains a full, stable octet.

B. increased stability in the completion of fluorine's outer shell.

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
