The reaction involved in present case is:
Net Reaction: Ca + 1/2 O2 → CaO. ..................(1)
In terms of oxidation and reduction, the reaction can be shown at
Oxidation: Ca → Ca2+ + 2e- .................(2)
Reduction: 1/2O2 + 2e- → O2-...................(3)
From, reaction 1 it can be seen that 1 mol of Ca reacts with 1/2 mol of O2 to form 1 mol of CaO.
From, reaction 2 it can be seen that 1 mol of Ca, generates 2 mol of e-.
Thus, when 1/2 mol of Ca is used in reaction, it will lose 1 mol of electrons.
Answer:
Na2SO3 + H2O2 = Na2SO4 + H2O
The trend of ionization energy in the periodic table is decreasing from right to left and from top to bottom. In this case, we are given with elements <span>K, Ca, Ge, Se, Br, Kr and see the periodic table to check the trend. The answer from highest to lowest Kr, Br, Se, Ge, Ca, and K</span>
Answer: With atomic number 20, calcium atoms have 20 positive protons, and the ion has only 18 electrons, which means the net charge is +2. Calcium ions are essential for muscle contractions, nerve impulses, and bone maintenance.

<span>The magnetic field of the Earth serves a useful purpose in deflecting Solar radiation. Without the magnetic field there is much more charged-particle radiation striking the surface. The auroras would occur everywhere instead of at the magnetic poles. Compass needles wouldn't work, and then they would flip direction.. The magnetic field IS DECREASING and could go to zero and reverse sometime in the next few tens-of-thousands of years.</span>
