What happens to the outer shell electrons of a calcium when it reacts with a oxygen atoms?

When calcium reacts with oxygen atoms, the outer shell electrons of calcium are transferred to oxygen atoms. This leads to the formation of calcium oxide (CaO) with calcium losing 2 electrons to form a Ca2+ ion and oxygen gaining 2 electrons to form an O2- ion.


How many outer ring electrons do calcium and oxygen have?

Calcium has 2 outer ring electrons, while oxygen has 6 outer ring electrons.


How many outer-ring electrons do calcium and oxygen have?

8 all together


How many electrons does an oxygen atom want to have in its outer sell?

"Want" is a word you should try to avoid when talking about atoms. Oxygen reacts to get a full outer shell of 8.


What happens if you are born in outer space?

You will die because you dont have a suit on. There is not oxygen in outerspace.


Does calcium have a full outer shell?

Calcium has a full 4s sublevel, but does not have a full "outer shell", per se, because it is not a noble gas.


How many outer shell are in calcium?

The outer shell of calcium has two electrons.


How many electrons does one atom of calcium donate to one atom of oxygen during the formation of the compound CaO?

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.


What is the outer covering of bones?

calcium


What does calcium not bond with?

I would imagine, logically, Calcium would react with every element except the Noble Gases - as they already have full outer energy levels, thus being unreactive. You will often find one calcium reacting with one element from group 6, for example Oxygen. CaO (as they strive to reach a full outer shell.)


When a group 1 metal reacts what happens to the outer shell electrons of its atoms?

When a group 1 metal reacts, its outer shell electron(s) are transferred to another atom or shared in a chemical bond. This results in the metal ion having a full outer shell of electrons, usually achieved by losing one electron to become stable with a +1 charge.


Ionic compound of cesium and oxygen?

The ionic compound formed when cesium reacts with oxygen is cesium oxide (Cs2O). In this compound, cesium, a group 1 metal, donates its outer electron to oxygen, a group 16 nonmetal, to form a stable ionic bond.
