What kind of question is that lol I don't even know that and I just studyed that last semester lol
I believe you mean the formation of the compound calcium iodide. In the formation of calcium iodide, CaI2, the calcium atom transfers two valence electrons to two iodine atoms, with one electron going to each iodine atom. This causes the formation of a calcium ion, Ca2+, and two iodide ions, I-. The electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions forms the ionic bonds that form the compound calcium iodide.
I am not positive what you mean by "core electrons" but: 57 (total) 7 (valence, outermost) 50 (non-valence, everyone but valence)
Iodine's atomic number is 53. That puts it in the halogen group. All halogens have 7 valence electrons.
a. carbon - 4 b. iodine - 12 c. calcium - 2 d. gallium - 3
The valence charge of iodine KIO2 would be negative one. The charge may vary depending on the type if iodine.
The order is: Iodine (7 valence electrons) Carbon (4 valence electrons) Calcium (2 valence electrons) Sodium (1 valence electron)
The calcium atom will transfer its two valence electrons, one to each of two iodine atoms, to form the compound calcium iodide, CaI2.

Iodine has 7 valence electrons like the other halogens.
Ca + I2 --> CaI2 Each calcium gives up 2 electrons to iodine when forming calcium iodide.
7 valence electrons in iodine
The formula for calcium iodide is CaI2. This means that the calcium atom has transferred one electron to each of two iodine atoms, for a total of two electrons transferred.
Seven valence electrons in iodine.
Iodine atom has 7 valence electrons, whereas Iodide ion has 8 valence electrons.
Both iodine and chlorine are halogens (group 17) and have 7 valence electrons.
One calcium atom will transfer one of each of its two valence electrons to one each of two iodine atoms. In the process, the calcium atom becomes a calcium ion with a 2+ charge, and each iodine atom becomes an iodide ion with a 1- charge. The opposite charges between the iodide and calcium ions form an electrostatic attraction called an ionic bond, forming the ionic compound calcium iodide. Ca + I2 ---> I- + Ca2+ + I- ---> CaI2
