The stems and leaves of many plants contain oxalic acid (H2C2O4) or sodium oxalate. A standard analysis for determining the amount of oxalate ion (C2O4 -2) in a sample is to precipitate oxalate out with the calcium ion. The reaction often involves the following reactants. Complete the following information for this reaction. Sodium oxalate and calcium chloride

the answer is na (sodium)

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
