it will always have 20 proton (+) and it may have a random amount of electrons that depends if neutrally charged it will be 20 electrons (-) negatively charged -19 electrons and positively charged is +21 electrons
Calcium (element number 20) has 20 protons and 20 electrons.
Calcium has twenty electrons in each atom.
20 of each
20 protons and 20 electrons
The calcium atom will transfer its two valence electrons, one to each of two iodine atoms, to form the compound calcium iodide, CaI2.
Calcium is an element, which means that it is made up protons/electrons and neutrons. Each calcium atom contains a total of 20 protons/electrons, and 20 neutrons.
The formula for calcium iodide is CaI2. This means that the calcium atom has transferred one electron to each of two iodine atoms, for a total of two electrons transferred.
Calcium has 20 protons and electrons. The symbol for calcium is Ca and its atomic number is 20.
during the formation of calcium iodide,calcium donates two of its +ve ions each to a fluorine atom(2 in number) thereby making its octet and also fulfills the octet formation of each of fluorine atom..
Calcium has 20 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is specific for each isotope. Number of neutrons in a calcium atom = Mass number - 20
Calcium is an element, so each atom of calcium is calcium.
I believe you mean the formation of the compound calcium iodide. In the formation of calcium iodide, CaI2, the calcium atom transfers two valence electrons to two iodine atoms, with one electron going to each iodine atom. This causes the formation of a calcium ion, Ca2+, and two iodide ions, I-. The electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions forms the ionic bonds that form the compound calcium iodide.
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.
