Answer:

Electronic Configuration of calcium ion: Ca²⁺

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶

Explanation:

Calcium belong to group IIA and known as alkaline earth metals.

  • it have two electrons in outer most orbital.
  • these outer two electrons are involve in bonding
  • calcium lose these two electron and form cation
  • cation have 2+ charge
  • calcium have total twenty electrons

Electronic Configuration of calcium atom: ²⁰Ca

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s²

When calcium ion is form it loses two electron and have 2+ charge on it.

and have total of 18 electrons

So,

Electronic Configuration of calcium ion: Ca²⁺

the last filled orbital will be 3p⁶

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶
