One atom of calcium donates two electrons to one atom of oxygen during the formation of the compound CaO. Calcium loses two electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration, while oxygen gains two electrons to complete its outer shell.
Two electrons are transferred in the ionic bond between Calcium and Oxygen. Calcium (Ca) loses two electrons to form Ca2+ ions, while Oxygen (O) gains two electrons to form O2- ions, resulting in the transfer of two electrons in total.
The calcium atom has 2 outer shell electrons. It's configuration is: [Ar] 4s2 it also has 2 inner shell electrons
Calcium carbonate has 16 valence electrons. Calcium contributes 2 valence electrons, while each oxygen atom contributes 6 valence electrons.
it has 6 electrons in the outer most shell

Calcium oxide has 20 electrons from the calcium atom, and 8 electrons from the oxygen atom, totaling 28 electrons.
Oxygen needs 2 more valence electrons to have a full outer shell. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, and a full outer shell for oxygen is achieved at 8 valence electrons.
Calcium oxide has 20 electrons from the calcium atom, and 8 electrons from the oxygen atom, totaling 28 electrons.
There are 2 electrons in the outer energy level for calcium, as it is located in the 4th (outermost) energy level of the electronic configuration.
