Answer:
B. Ca(NO2)2
Explanation:
Ions (charged atoms) combine with one another to form stable ionic compounds. In this case, calicium ion (Ca2+) is said to react with NO2, which has a charge of -1 i.e. +1-1(2) = 1-2 = -1.
This means that calcium has a charge of +2 while nitrite ion has charge of -1, hence, when they combine, they exchange their charges, which become their subscript as follows:
Ca2+ + NO2- → Ca(NO2)2
Ca(NO2)2 is a stable ionic compound called calcium nitrite. Notice that it takes two atoms of NO2- to react with one atom of Ca2+.
B.) Valence Electrons. The nucleus of the valence electrons attracts and pulls atoms together.
Oxidation
It is oxidation because two O's 1 x 1 d 2 i's 1 n and 1 a
