The molecule is formed by the calcium cation Ca+2 and the oxygen anion O-2, which form a ionic bond. The calcium oxide ionic lattice is cubic and similar to NaCl lattice, with an ion surrounded by 6 opposite charge-ion.
Explanation:
An electrovalent compound is formed when one atom transfers one or more electrons from itself to its neighboring atom, and an ionic bond is formed between the two atoms of the compound. In Calcium Oxide, Calcium transfers its two valence electrons to its neighbour Oxygen and an ionic bond is formed between them.
