Answer: <u>Four</u>Explanation: Calcium Sulfide is an ionic compound made up of Ca²⁺ and S²⁻.
Ca²⁺ is formed as,
Ca → Ca²⁺ + 2 e⁻
These two electrons are accepte by Sulfur as,
S + 2 e⁻ → S²⁻
So, before accepting 2 electrons S was having six valence electrons, after accepting two electrons from Ca it has 8 electrons which are present in four pairs as shown below,
Answer:
One
Explanation:
Because it reaches an equibrum state so it's equals to one
A
single oxygen has atomic number 8 that means the nuclei of all oxygen atoms
have eight protons. The number of minus-charged electron is two but the number
of electrons is 10. <span>To gain a minus two-charge ion, it
must have two more negative electrons than positive charged protons. With this,
the ion has 10 electrons, which give it a -2 net charge. </span>
