Answer:

CaCl2.

Explanation:

Ions may be defined as the elements that acquires positive or negative charge over them. Two main types of ions are cations and the anions that are formed by the gain or loss of the element.

The calcium has two positive charge over it and contains Ca²+. The chloride contains one negative charge over it and exists as Cl^{-1}.

The chemical formula will be :

Ca²+     Cl^{-1}.

+2               -1  (cross multiply)

CaCl2.

Thus, the formula is CaCl2.

The Tillite debris from melting glaciers, in Dwyka Tillite are located at the bottom layers of the Karoo Supergroup, which is an indication that millions of years ago, South Africa was under extensive glacier coverage formed during the movement of the continent past the South Pole

The eventual arrival of the continent to temperate regions away from the South Pole resulted in the melting of the glaciers from which a huge swamp was formed.
