The answer is 2 electrons.
The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2
Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements. Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.
Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known as an ionic compound.
For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas, calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.
Answer: -
D. Network
Explanation: -
Diamond is an allotrope of carbon. In diamond each carbon atom makes four bonds to other carbon atoms.
They exist in tetrahedral shape.
Diamond has strong covalent bonds. They extend in all the three dimensions
Such covalent bonds are called network covalent bonds. They require significant amounts of energy to break.
Answer:
= 
Explanation:
Tollens test is carried out to perceive difference between aldehydes and ketones on the basis of their capability to oxidized easily.
when Tollens react with aldehyde (heptanal) , a silver mirror is form on inner side of container.
The reaction between tollens and heptanal is given as
= 
Because atoms are the small and can't be seen by your eyes. It is so small that scientists need to use a model. A model help scientists study things. So, scientists needs to study atoms using models.
Answer:
b. 4/3
Explanation:
Given data
- Final pressure: P₂ = 3 P₁
- Final temperature: T₂ = 4 T₁
We can find by what factor will the volume of the sample change using the combined gas law.
