Question

Explain the Formation of Calcium Oxide .
[tex]\huge\bold\red {Hello}[/text]​

Answer 1

Answer:

Calcium reacts with oxygen to form an ionic compound calcium oxide (CaO). The atomic number of calcium is 20 and that of oxygen is 8 . By losing two electrons ,the calcium atom forms a calcium ion( Ca2+ ) ,and by gaining two electrons ,the oxygen atom forms an oxide ion (O2-). ... Thus calcium oxide contains ionic bonds .
