Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Calcium is an element with a total of 20 electrons.

It has 4 shells with a configuration of:

2, 8, 8, 2

Option C is the most similar to calcium but the number of shells is not complete.

It still requires two more shells with 8 and two electrons respectively.
