→Why is Calcium Chloride CaCl<sub>2</sub> Rather than CaCl or CaCl<sub>3</sub>?: re-categorisation
A similar sort of argument applies to the negative ion. For example, [[oxygen]] forms an O<sup>2-</sup> ion rather than an O<sup>-</sup> ion or an O<sup>3-</sup> ion, because compounds containing the O<sup>2-</sup> ion turn out to be the most energetically stable.
