The calcium ion has 18 electrons.
The sulfate ion has 16 electrons from sulfur, 32 electrons from oxygen atoms and two from the charge.
Altogether, a (molecule) of calcium sulfate has 68 electrons.
* Calcium sulfate is not existing as molecules, 'formula unit' is a better phrase.

What is Ca2SO3?
CaSO4 is the chemical formula of calcium sulfate.
Is calcium sulfate an element?
No, because it has 2 substances in it - calcium and sulfate - Calcium is an element, but sulfate is a polyatomic ion. Sulfate consists of sulfur and oxygen. Therefore, calcium sulfate is a compound, that is, made of three elements.
How many s electrons are there in calcium?
The neutral atom of calcium has 20 electrons.
How many electrons on the outermost shell of calcium?
There are 2 electrons on the outermost shell of calcium.
Is calcium sulfate hcl insoluble?
Calcium sulfate is soluble in a solution of hydrochloric acid.
How many atoms are in calcium sulfate?
Calcium Sulfate has one calcium, because calcium is positively charged (2+) and sulfate is negatively charged (2-) and combines together 1 to 1 to form neutral calcium sulfate, or: Ca2+ + SO42- → CaSO4
The compound CaSO4 ionizes into a calcium ion and a sulfate ion SO4 Calcium has 2 electrons in its outer shell Upon ionization what would you expect the charge on the sulfate ion to be?
SO4 2-
What is Ca2SO3?

There are 20 electrons in a calcium atom.
How many nuetrons and electrons does calcium have?
calcium has 20 neutrons and electrons
How many electrons are calcium?
Calcium has 20 electrons in the neutral atom.
How many valence electrons have calcium?
Calcium has two valence electrons.
How many electrons does calcium have in the periodic table?
Calcium has 20 electrons
Is calcium sulfate an element?
No, because it has 2 substances in it - calcium and sulfate - Calcium is an element, but sulfate is a polyatomic ion. Sulfate consists of sulfur and oxygen. Therefore, calcium sulfate is a compound, that is, made of three elements.
Is calcium sulfate magnetic?
My book says that calcium is paramagnetic but I cannot understand why since it doesn't have any unpaired electrons as paramagnetic materials need to have. I have the same question for magnesium too.
What is the percent of water in calcium sulfate?
the % hydrate of calcium sulfate is 20.9%
