Activity 4 - Worksheet On Formation of Ions

The document is a chemistry worksheet containing 11 multiple choice questions about ionization reactions involving calcium and oxygen atoms. It asks the student to identify the elements shown, whether they are neutral, the type of ion each atom becomes, and whether their outer electron configurations become more stable. It also contains a table for the student to fill in information about common ions such as their valence electrons, electrons gained or lost, and ion names.
