Want this question answered?
Calcium is a non metal element. There are 20 electrons in a single atom.
Depends on what you mean by number of electrons. Calcium has 20 electrons and oxygen has 8 electrons for a total of 28 electrons. But if you mean how many VALENCE electrons, then the calcium has 2 and the O has 6 for a total of 8 valence electrons.
Calcium has 2 valence electrons and it typically loses these 2 electrons to achieve a stable configuration.
The first layer has two, since the maximum amount of electrons you may have in layer one are two, after the first layer you may have a maximum of eight electrons per layer, so layer one has two, layer two has eight, and layer 3 has a maximum of 18. To find the maximum number of electrons each layer can have do the equation 2(n2) n=number of layers
It loses 2 electrons to obtain the argon configuration of 8 valence electrons.
Calcium has two valence electrons.
Calcium has two valence electrons.
There are only 2 valence electron found in calcium.
There are 2 electrons in valence shell of calcium. :-)

Calcium has 2 valence electrons, like all Group 2 elements.

Two.
The first layer has two, since the maximum amount of electrons you may have in layer one are two, after the first layer you may have a maximum of eight electrons per layer, so layer one has two, layer two has eight, and layer 3 has a maximum of 18. To find the maximum number of electrons each layer can have do the equation 2(n2) n=number of layers
Eight valence electrons.
