  • Calcium Chloride (CaCl₂) & Sodium Carbonate (Na₂CO₃) Formulas Explained
    The formula for calcium chloride is CaCl₂ and the formula for sodium carbonate is Na₂CO₃.

    Here's how to figure that out:

    * Calcium chloride: Calcium (Ca) has a +2 charge, and chloride (Cl) has a -1 charge. To balance the charges, you need two chloride ions for every calcium ion.

    * Sodium carbonate: Sodium (Na) has a +1 charge, and carbonate (CO₃) has a -2 charge. To balance the charges, you need two sodium ions for every carbonate ion.

    Let me know if you need help with other chemical formulas!
