Shameeka is studying for an exam. She took the notes below about calcium and chlorine, which are known to form ionic bonds. Calcium, which is a metal, donates 2 electrons to chlorine. The individual calcium atoms become ions with a negative 2 charge. The bond between calcium and chlorine makes the atoms stable. Calcium and chlorine attract each other. Which best describes Shameeka’s error? ive got 2 hours so you dont need to rush
