What is the word equation for calcium sulphide?

Calcium Sulphide is the name(word) of the substance. It chemical formula is 'CaS'. That is one atom of calcium one atom of sulphur. NB Carefukl with the nameing oif sulphur compounds. 'Sulphate' = -SO4' (Four oxygens). CuSO4 ; Copper SULPHATE) 'Sulphite' = -SO3' (Three oxygen). (CuSO3 ; Copper SULPHITE) 'Sulphide' = -S' (No oxygens). (CuS ' Copper SULPHIDE). Note the subtle change of one letter to indicate a different sulphur type compound.


Which element is made of calcium and oxygen?

None. Calcium and oxygen are both elements that can combine to form the compound calcium oxide, CaO.


Is sulphur dioxide a mixture a compound or an element?

Sulphur dioxide is a COMPOUND. It tis a combination of two oxygen atoms with a sulphur atom . Structurally it is shown as ' O=S=O'. (Very similar to carbon dioxide. Each oxygen atom is doubly covalently bonded to the sulphur atom. NB It is NOT a mixture, because mixtures have NO electronic bonding between atoms. NNB It is NOT an element. It is composed of TWO elements viz. sulphur and oxygen. The Periodic Table gives a list of all the elements. You will not find sulphur dioxide (SO2) listed,as it is a compound, but separately sulphur(S) and oxygen(O).
