The element calcium is a metal. It turns out that calcium (Ca) is in Group 2 of the Periodic Table, and all the elements in Group 1 and Group 2 are "true" metals.
calcium is a metal
Calcium is an alkaline earth metal.
The normal phase of an element is: What form it is (liquid ,solid ,gas) what the classification is (nonmetal ,metal ,metalloid)
The iron will not react unless you react it with calcium chloride. This is because Chloride is very electronegative (it has a high affinity for electrons) Both iron and calcium are not very electronegative and would like to give away their electrons. The Chloride ion accepts these electrons to get a full valent shell.

An alloy is a metal that has been mixed with another metal. Aluminum alloys could contain zinc, copper, or silicon (not limited to). Gold alloys can contain copper or silver. Aluminum alloy is created to be stronger and more corrosion resistant than plain aluminum. Gold alloy is created to be cheaper. Many more alloys exist.
Because it is a nonmetal
calcium is a metal
metal
metal
Calcium is a metal and is a hard one
It's a metal.
Metal. Alkaline earth metal.
In compounds consisting of a metal and nonmetal, the metal (calcium) is written first and the nonmetal (sulfur) has the end replaced with -ide. So the correct name for a compound of calcium and sulfur is calcium sulfide.
Ionic
No. Clacium chloride is a chemical compound. Calcium itself, though, is a metal, while chlorine is a nonmetal.
calcium is a metalloid as it stands between metal and non metal as it doesn't have all the porperties of metal. calcium oxide is not an element so neither metal or non metal it is a compound
Calcium Chloride is an ionic compound. You see, for a substance to be classified as either a non-metal or a metal, it has to be in elemental form. Calcium Chloride is a compound, so you can't say whether it is a non-metal or a metal. However, of the elements that make up this compound, Calcium is a metal and Chlorine is a non-metal.
Calcium is an alkaline earth metal located in Group 2 (IIA) on the periodic table.
