What type of a chemical bond would expect between a calcium atom and a chlorine atom?
Wiki User
∙ 12y ago
A calcium atom will readily form Ca2+ ions while a chlorine atom will readily form Cl- atoms. Thus, ionic bonding is the only bonding that can occur between a calcium and a chlorine atom. The equation for the reaction is as follows:
Ca + Cl2 --> CaCl2

What type ofchemical bond would you expect between a calcium atom and a chlorine atom a metallic a plar covalent nonpolar covalent or a ionic?
Covalent because its 2 nonmetals bonding
What type of a chemical bond would expect between a sodium atom and a sodium atom?
A metallic bond.
Would you expect a chlorine ion to be smaller than a magnesium ion?
no, Cl is bigger
If you mixed chlorine argon and sodium together what would you expect to happen?
Sodium will react with chlorine to give you sodium chloride. Sodium will burn out. That means it is exothermic reaction. The argon is noble gas. argon will not take part in the chemical reaction or in the process of burning. Argon will act as a medium to dilute the chlorine. The end products will be same. The time to complete the burning will be little more, when chlorine is diluted with argon gas. This is just like carbon burning in the air and in pure oxygen. Carbon burns brighter in pure oxygen.
If you heated limestone how would you expect the mass of the limestone to compare with the mass of calcium oxide?
When you heat limestone it becomes calcium oxide but if you mean calcium carbonate then it should go down slightly due to the release of CO2
What type of chemical bond would you expect between a calcium atom Ca atomic number twenty and a chlorine atom Cl atomic number seventeen?
iam sure its an ionic Bond.
Would you expect calcium to gain or lose electrons in a chemical reactions?
Like all metals calcium will lose electrons.
What type ofchemical bond would you expect between a calcium atom and a chlorine atom a metallic a plar covalent nonpolar covalent or a ionic?
Covalent because its 2 nonmetals bonding
How would you distinguish between zinc nitrate and calcium nitrate?
Calcium nitride is Ca3N2 and is basic. Calcium nitrate is Ca(NO3)2 and is neutral.
What is the ratio of zinc to chlorine in zinc chloride?
The ratio of zinc to chlorine in zinc chloride is one to two. For every atom of zinc (Zn), we'll find two chlorine (Cl) atoms bonded to it. It's chemical formula is ZnCl2, just as you'd expect it to be. A link can be found below.
What type of a chemical bond would expect between a sodium atom and a sodium atom?
A metallic bond.
Would you expect to find calcium chloride in ocean water?
what do you expeat to find in calcium chloride in ocean water
Does chlorine affect heat rash?
Chlorine itself is a skin irritant, so you would expect it to worsen a rash of any type.
Would you expect a chlorine ion to be smaller than a magnesium ion?
no, Cl is bigger
What element would you expect to behave the most like calcium?
Calcium is in group 2/IIA, so the other elements in that group would be expected to behave most like calcium.
What is the motto of Chemical Bank?
The motto of Chemical Bank is 'Expect More from us'.
What is the difference between expect and expect that?
what can you expect from yourself
