What is the formula of calcium fluoride?
The reason it becomes stable is because Ca has 2 valence electrons that it wants to get rid of to become stable. F has 7 valence electrons and wants 1 more to become stable. So, TWO F atoms each take 1 of the 2 electrons from Ca. They form an ionic bond as Ca^2+ and 2F^- to make CaF2.
Which is more stable EDTA calcium or magnesium?
Ca-EDTA is more stable.. its stability constant is above 10 wheras Mg's is below 9, as to why this is I dont know
Unlike sodium and chlorine some atoms become more stable by sharing electrons forming what?
Unlike the sodium and chlorine, some atoms become more stable by sharing electrons and therefore form the ionic compounds.
What will chlorine do to become more stable?
'Steal' electrons from other elements where possible, or share them if that is more efficient.
Unlike sodium and chlorine some atoms become more stable by sharing what?
Electrons.
To become more stable fluorine is likely to?
To become more stable, fluorine is most likely to gain 1 electron and form F- ion.
Elements in Group 1 become more stable by what an electron?
Elements in group two become more stable as they all have complete electron shell.They do not have valence electrons and hence they are less reactive.Some of the elements of group 2 are Barium,Magnesium and Calcium
What happens when the ratio of neutrons to protons is not a stable ratio?
If it is not stable, then the atom will likely either emit alpha radiation or beta radiation in order to become more stable.
When atoms combine to form compound do they become more stable or less stable?
More stable
How can nitrogen become more chemically stable?
Nitrogen is sufficiently stable.
Does calcium have isotopes?
Yes. Yes it does.The element calcium has a known 24 Stable Isotopes. For more information, ask google
Why do over-steepened slopes lead to mass movements?
if the steepness of a slope exceeds the stable angle, mass movements become more likely.

In order to fill their outer most shells and become more stable atoms form what?
In order to fill their outer most shells and become more stable atoms form BONDS.

Ca-EDTA is more stable.. its stability constant is above 10 wheras Mg's is below 9, as to why this is I dont know
Which isotope is more stable arsenic-33 carbon-13 calcium-20 cesium-54?
arsenic-33 is more stable since it has the largest mass defect
Is calcium more likely to gain or lose electrons?
Calcium is most likely to lose two electrons to form its dipositive ion.
