When a metal reacts with oxygen gas what is the product formed

Hello There!!

Explanation:

When a metal reacts with oxygen gas metal oxide forms.Whenever a compound or element reacts with oxygen It turns to oxide.

hope this helps,have a great day!!

Metal + Oxygen -> Metal Oxide

Explanation:

It's pretty self-explanatory. However, let me show you an example:

Iron + Oxygen -> Iron Oxide

Iron rusts. When iron rusts, it comes in contact with air to form Iron Oxide, which is rust itself.

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms
