Carbon Dioxide has the formula of CO2, which means 1 Carbon atom and 2 Oxygen atom per CO2 molecule. Carbon12 has 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons per atom. Oxygen has 8 protons, 8 neutrons and 8 electrons per atom. One CO2 molecule contains 22 protons, 22 neutrons and 22 electrons.

Calcium Nitrate has the formula of Ca(NO3)2. Calcium contains 20 of each. Nitrogen contains 7 of each. Oxygen contains 8 of each. Per molecule there are 1 calcium, 2 Nitrogen and 6 oxygen. Therefore: 20 + (2x7) + (6x8) = 20 + 14 + 48 = 72 protons, 72 Neutrons and 72 electrons.

I hope that answers your question.

In photosynthesis redox reactions ultimately transfer electrons from where?

§Photosynthesis, like respiration, is a redox (oxidation-reduction) process -Water molecules are split apart by oxidation, which means that they lose electrons along with hydrogen ions (H+) -Then CO2 is reduced to sugar as electrons and hydrogen ions are added to it This means that the electrons are moved from a water molecule to a carbon dioxide molecule. H2O >> CO2

Is carbon dioxide a covalent bond and why?

Yes, carbon dioxide is a covalent molecule. It consist of a carbon atom, which forms a double covalent bond to two oxygen atoms around it. The angles between the bonds are 180o and as such carbon dioxide is a linear molecule.
