What type of ion would calcium form?
Calcium is a group 2 element, and so it will form a cation, Ca 2+.
Would you expect to find calcium chloride in ocean water?
what do you expeat to find in calcium chloride in ocean water
Would calcium and aluminum form a compound?
Not by themselves, because they are both too electropositive. Together with oxygen, however, they form calcium aluminate.
What would be the charged ion form of calcium?
Ca+2
What type of bond that will form between Ca S?
The bond between calcium and sulfur would be ionic. The corresponding compound would be calcium sulfide.
What would be produced when calcium is heated in air?
Calcium most likely will react with the oxygen in the air. 2Ca(s) + O2(g) -->2CaO(s). It would form solid calcium oxide.
Why calcium is obtained by electrolysis of molten calcium chloride rather than its solution?
if done in water solution, the extracted calcium would immediately react with the water to form calcium hydroxide.
Would you find calcium uncombined in nature?
egg shels
Would hormones of the parathyroid gland needed iodine to be form?
No calcium is needed
What compound would form from Ca plus 2 and Cl?
Calcium Chloride
What type of bond would a calcium atom with the number 20 and a oxygen atom with number 8 form?
They would form an ionic bond. Calcium is a metal and oxygen is a non-metal, and the ionic bond is the most common way these two types of elements get together. Calcium has 2 valence electrons, which it will lose to oxygen, which has 6 and therefore needs 2. Calcium and oxygen will combine in a 1:1 ratio to form calcium oxide with the formula CaO.
What happens when calcium and oxygen react?
It turns a bright red color and it does not spread. If you take a little bit of calcium and put in a bowl and light it up, it will crete a small fire in the bowl but it will not burn it.
