If two chlorine atoms were to attract electrons from two calcium atoms the chlorine atoms would become charged?
negatively
Does chlorine attract or release electrons?
A chlorine atom will attract a single electron to form a negatively charged ion with a -1 charge.
How could calcium achieve a stable octet?
Lose two electrons to form a doubly charged calcium cation.
If a chlorine atom were to attract an electron from sodium the chlorine atom would become blank charged?
positively
Why is sodium chloride electrically neutral?
A sodium atom has 11 protons and electrons and a chlorine atom has 17 protons and electrons. When they combine, sodium loses an electron, and chlorine gains the electron sodium lost. Now, sodium has 10 electrons and 11 protons, making it positively charged. Chlorine on the other hand, now has 18 electrons and 17 protons, making it negatively charged. Sodium has a +1 charge, and chlorine has a -1 charge. Both charges cancel out, making it have no charge.

positively
Electrons attract what?
electrons are negitively charged, they are attracted to positive charge. Either a proton or positively charged atom.
How many protoons and electrons does each calcium atom have?
it will always have 20 proton (+) and it may have a random amount of electrons that depends if neutrally charged it will be 20 electrons (-) negatively charged -19 electrons and positively charged is +21 electrons
Why will electrons moved from negatively charge body?
Electrons are negatively charged. Opposites attract, so they are attracted to positively charged bodies.
The mutual attraction or repulsion between electrons or protons is attributed?
Electrons and protons attract each other, as electrons are negatively charged and protons are positively charges, and opposites attract.
What is the protons and electrons of element calcium?
The element calcium has 20 protons and 20 electrons.
How could calcium achieve a stable octet?
Lose two electrons to form a doubly charged calcium cation.
How a charged rod placed near an uncharged metal object can repel?
Charged rod and an uncharged metal object attract each other because free electrons in metal are either attracted or repelled by the charged rod. If the rod is positively charged then free electrons are attracted towards it and both objects attract each other. If the rod is negatively charged then free electrons are repelled by it and positive ions are attracted by the rod and both objects attract each other.
What would happen is a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chlorine ion came into contact?
they will loose electrons
What happens when a chlorine shares 1 electrons with an atom of hydrogen?
Actually chlorine and hydrogen will not share electrons; the chlorine atom steals the electron from the hydrogen atom, creating two separate oppositely charged ions.
