There are two types of chemical compound one is covalent compound and another is ionic compound in chemistry. In ionic bonds, electrons are completely transferred. The correct option is option C.

<h3>What is chemical Compound?</h3>

Chemical Compound is a combination of molecule, Molecule forms by combination of element and element forms by combination of atoms in fixed proportion.

During formation of a compound calcium act as cation as Ca²⁺ so, if any element has to react with this cation in a 1:1 ratio, must have -2 charge over it . Option C represents S⁻², which react with Ca²⁺.

Therefore, the correct option is option C.
