Answer:
When calcium reacts with tellurium it will donates its two electrons and these two electron will be accepted by tellurium.
There must be 1 calcium atom for every 1 tellurium atom in the reaction.
Explanation:
Calcium has atomic number of 20. Its electronic configuration is given as:
Calcium atom will loose 2 elections to attain electronic configuration of noble gas.
Tellurium has atomic number of 52. Its electronic configuration is given as:
Tellurium atom will gain 2 elections to attain electronic configuration of noble gas.
So, when calcium reacts with tellurium it will donates its two electrons and these two electron will be accepted by tellurium.
There must be 1 calcium atom for every 1 tellurium atom in the reaction.
