Answer:
cation +2
Explanation:
A cation is a positively charged ion, while an anion is a negatively charged ion. Contrary to how it sounds, when an atom loses electrons, it's charge becomes more positive. Since the calcium atom lost 2 electrons, it is a positive (+2) ion.
Answer:
2 HCl + CaCO3 = CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
Explanation:
On the right side we have 2xCl, to get the same amount we will multiply HCl on the left side by 2.
This will give us 2xH on the left side; we also have 2xH on the right side ( in H2O).
On both sides we have 1x Ca; 1x C.
On the left side we have 3XO (in CaCO3), on the right side we have 1O in H20 and 2xO in CO2, so 3x O on the right side as well.
The reaction is balanced.
