Is Cl2 an element or a compound?
ClO4 is not a compound, it exists as ClO4-, which is a polyatomic ion called the perchlorate ion. Some positive ion such as potassium or ammonium must be present to balance the charge and form a compound.
Ca2 plus CL equals CaCL2?
No, one atom of the element Calcium (Ca) reacts with a molecule of Chlorine Gas which has two atoms of chlorine (CL2) to form on molecule of Calcium chloride (CaCl2) :-Ca + CL2 = CaCL
