Step 1
In the given chemicals, sodium, calcium and iron are the metal ions.
Calcium is an alkali metal and its most stable valence 2. In calcium permanganate valence of calcium is 2.
Sodium is an earth metal and its most stable valence 1. In Sodium sulphide valence of Sodium 1.
In generally transition metals have multiple valences so in the given compounds iron is the only metal, which have multivalent.
