Argon (atomic number 18) is the noble gas that is nearest to calcium (atomic number 20)
Argon (atomic number 18) is the noble gas that is nearest to calcium (atomic number 20)
Neither.
Calcium is group 2 element (or alkaline earth metal).
And calcium is reactive element and it forms a large number of compounds (generally ionic compounds)
No, Calcium is a highly reactive metal.
Calcium has to lose 2 electrons to form noble gas configuration.
Calcium will lose two electrons to gain the noble gas configuration of Argon.
Calcium should lose 2 valence electrons and attain the noble gas configuration of argon with 18 elements.
argon (atomic number 18) is the closest to calcium (atomic number 20)

Calcium is not a noble gas but an alkaline earth metal.
Yes it is. Argon (atomic number 18) is the noble gas that is nearest to calcium (atomic number 20)
Calcium has to lose 2 electrons to form noble gas configuration.

Calcium will lose two electrons to gain the noble gas configuration of Argon.
Calcium should lose 2 valence electrons and attain the noble gas configuration of argon with 18 elements.
Argon is closest, as Calcium is number 20, and Argon is number 18.

The electronic configuration of calcium in calcium hydroxide is the configuration of a calcium +2 ion, which is the same as the configuration of the preceding noble gas, argon.
No Such ... all atoms have an electron configuration, yet Ca++ is not a noble gas.
