How many valence electrons are transferred from the calcium atom to iodine in the formation of the compound calcium iodide?
1 answer:
Answer:
Two electrons.
Explanation:
Calcium is the element of second group and forth period. The electronic configuration of Calcium is - 2, 8, 8, 2 or
There are 2 valence electrons of Calcium.
Iodine is the element of seventeenth group and fifth period. The electronic configuration of Iodine is - 2, 8, 18, 18, 7 or
There are 7 valence electrons of iodine.
Calcium iodide, is formed when 2 valence electrons of calcium are loosed and they are gained by 2 atoms of iodine.
