Calcium has a 2+ charge and Oxygen has a 2- charge.

To get the formula you have to balance the charges so that it's neutral. In this case a 2- and 2+ charge cancel each other out making the formula CaO.

Answer: CaO

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here calcium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as Ca^{2+} cation and oxide O^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral CaO.

The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.

Answer: (C) Statements (i) and (iii)

Explanation: According to byjus.com, group VII elements are known as Halogens.

Not only that, but bbc.co.uk says " Atoms of group 7 elements all have seven electrons in their outer shell. This means that the halogens all have similar chemical reactions ."

It may just be (b) though as these are chemical reactions.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Absorbed, endothermic

Explanation:

Based on the heat of reaction, chemical reactions may be classified as endothermic or exothermic.

In an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed from the surrounding. As heat is absorbed from the surrounding, the reaction vessel feels cool when touched.

On the other hand, in an exothermic reaction, heat is given out by the system to the surrounding and the reaction vessel feels hot when touched.

Hence the reaction is endothermic and energy is absorbed during the reaction.

Answer:

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by- products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.
