When atom A gains two electrons it forms an anion by developing 2 negative charges over it as there are 2 electrons more than the number of protons in the ion.

When these atoms gain electrons, they acquire a negative charge because they now possess more electrons than protons. Negatively charged ions are called anions. I hope this helps

Someone please help me!!!!
Artyom0805 [142]

Double replacement :

2Na₃PO₄+3CaCl₂⇒6NaCl + Ca₃(PO₄)₂

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

1. A single replacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

2. Double-Replacement reactions. Happens if there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product

3. Combination/syntesis : 2 or more reactants combine to form a new compound

4. Decomposition : the reactant is decomposed into 2/more products

If we look at the reaction options available, all of them can be included in the double replacement reaction, but we only choose the reaction from Sodium phosphate and Calcium chloride which leads to options: C because it is balanced (from the number of atoms in the same reactant and product) and is in accordance with the chemical formula of each compound (both products and reactants)
