Option a: Calcium hydroxide

The chemical formula for the compound is Ca(OH)_2 and the metal present in this compound is Calcium.

Option b: Milk of magnesia

The chemical formula for the compound is Mg(OH)_2 and the metal present in this compound is Magnesium.

Option c: Sodium hydroxide

The chemical formula for the compound is NaOH and the metal present in this compound is sodium.

Option d: Copper hydroxide

The chemical formula for the compound is Cu(OH)_2 and the metal present in this compound is Copper.

  • For 2:

Non-metals are defined as the elements which gain electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. After gaining electrons, the non-metals usually form negative ions known as anions.
