By itself, no. However, if mixed with water, it can form an explosive gas known as acetylene.
I believe Phosphorus and Calcium are the two main elements used in fertilizers. Phosphorus can be very dangerous to the ecosystem as demonstrated in the phosphorus cycle.
i think that lack of calcium makes your bones weak.
The answer your teacher is expecting is "calcium", though your teacher should have worded the question better; there are no alkali metals with 2 valence electrons. Calcium is an alkaline earth.
There are four electrolytes that are important to heart function, potassium, calcium, sodium and magnesium. Calcium is important in the actual contraction of the heart.
In its elemental form, calcium is made of electrically neutral Ca atoms. It is s silvery, highly reactive metal, that vigorously reacts with water. The calcium in milk is in the form of Ca2+ ions, which are chemically stable.
Calcium carbide (CaC2) is a compound.
The bond between calcium and carbon in calcium carbide is an ionic bond.
Calcium carbide is formed by ionic bonding.
No - calcium is an inorganic element as is carbon. Combined, they form the inorganic compound calcium carbide,
Calcium Carbide is used in "Carbide Lamps". Water, added dropwise to Calcium Carbide yields acetylene plus calcium hydroxide. Acetylene is extremely flammable, giving a colorless flame. The calcium hydroxide present gives the flame its visibility. Calcium Carbide is used in "Carbide Lamps". Water, added dropwise to Calcium Carbide yields acetylene plus calcium hydroxide.

yes, when calcium carbide is placed in water it produces acetylene gas and calcium hydroxide.
Calcium and carbon.
This is calcium carbide - CaC2.
Calcium and carbon
Calcuim carbide is a chemical compound. It is mainly used to produce acetylene and calcium cyanamide. It is sometimes used to ripen fruit, though this can lead to cancer.
