Calcium ions are neutral and hydrogencarbonate ions are: (!!) BOTH acid AND base at the same time, both very weakly, though it is a bit more base than acidic:
Calcium hydroxide would be a base. It would dissociate into Ca2+ and two OH- ions when dissolved into water.
Ca(OH)2 (calcium hydroxide) is a strong base (which means it cannot be an acid). It is formed by mixing CaO (quicklime, or calcium oxide) with H2O (water).
Calcium Hydroxide is quite alkaline.

Calcium Chloride is neither acid nor base. It is a neutral salt.
By Sodium hydrogencarbonate, I understand you mean Na HCO3, Sodium Bicarbonate. This is also known as baking soda. No, it is not an acid. Actually, it is used as an antacid (this can also be called an anti-acid, or even a base), and will raise pH.
Neither, because it a salt of strong base(Calcium) and strong acid(Chloric acid)
it is neutral

Calcium itself is neutral.
Calcium chloride solution is neutral.
