40 Ca2+
Mass number is 40
Atomic number (proton number) is 20
therefore 18 electrons as calcium has lost 2 electrons to become a Ca2+ ions
:D
the atomic no of calcium is 20 so to reach the nearest noble gas electronic configuration it loses 2 electrons and forms + 2 ion.
No, Ca2+ has 2 electrons LESS than Ca
Ca + 2 HCl = CaCl2 + H2
Calcium Chloride
If you mean Ca(OH)2(s) --> Ca2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) this is the equation for the dissolving of calcium hydroxide in water.
Ca is Calcium It's Atomic Number is 20. So it has 20electrons. so 20+2=22 wala
Mg2+ is larger Now, as for the logic behind this problem...The first thing to do is recognize that Ca2+ (Calcium) has lost 2 of its electrons, therefore its valence electron structure is the same as Ar's (Argon). Ar is in the same row as Mg. The trend for atomic radii is increasing to the left and down. Atomic radius increases to the left because the atoms to the right have more particles in the nucleus than their counterparts to the left; thus, the electrons are drawn closer to the nucleus, and the atomic radius is diminished.
the atomic no of calcium is 20 so to reach the nearest noble gas electronic configuration it loses 2 electrons and forms + 2 ion.
the atomic number is 2
Ca(OH )2 plus sulfuric acid yields water and CaSO4.
The aba-ca-by =2
The atomic symbol for an isotope of calcium will be the regular symbol for calcium, Ca. The number of protons will differ from standard calcium. This is written below the mass number Ca.
2 Ca + 2O2 = 2(CaO2)
CaCO3 does not have a lewis structure because this molecule is composed of ions. (Ca+2 and CO3-2). you have to draw the lewis structure of the ions separately, as shown in the parenthesis.
yes.
No, Ca2+ has 2 electrons LESS than Ca
The calcium ion Ca^2+ is derived from the calcium atom Ca when the Ca loses 2 electrons. Thus,Ca ===> Ca^2+ + 2e-
