argon (atomic number 18) is the closest to calcium (atomic number 20)
Neon
Calcium has to lose 2 electrons to form noble gas configuration.
Calcium will lose two electrons to gain the noble gas configuration of Argon.
neon
Argon (atomic number 18) is the noble gas that is nearest to calcium (atomic number 20)
Argon is closest, as Calcium is number 20, and Argon is number 18.
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)
Neon
Calcium has to lose 2 electrons to form noble gas configuration.
[Ar] 4s2
Calcium will lose two electrons to gain the noble gas configuration of Argon.

neon
Argon (atomic number 18) is the noble gas that is nearest to calcium (atomic number 20)
This gas is krypton.
Calcium should lose 2 valence electrons and attain the noble gas configuration of argon with 18 elements.
