Why does the ion in magnesium oxide stay together?

In accordance with Coulomb's Law, the positively charged magnesium ions attract the negatively charged oxygen atoms, and they form an alternating lattice. You never get two magnesium or two oxygen next to each other, because they repel each other; you get alternating magnesium and oxygen.

Why ions remain together in a compound?

The ions stay together because of the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and the negatively charged anions.


Why do the element in an ionic bond stay together after the electron is transferred?

The ions formed are electrostatically attracted to other ions of the opposite charge.


How does magnesium sulfate react in a sodium carbonate solution?

Magnesium sulfate and sodium carbonate are both soluble in water. This means there will be four different types of ions in the initial solution: Mg 2+, SO4 2-, Na +, CO3 2-. These ions move about freely, and transiently interact with ions of opposite charge. If this forms a soluble compound, the ions bump together and initially dissolve again. Magnesium carbonate, though, is not considered to be soluble in water. This means that when the magnesium and carbonate ions "bump together" they stay together and form a solid. The result of this reaction is a white precipitate of magnesium carbonate forming in the solution.

Magnesium plus zinc sulphate - magnesium sulphate plus zinc?

Nope. There would be no reaction because magnesium is higher on the reactive series than magnesium. It would stay the same.

When a precipitation reaction occurs the ions that do not form the precipitate?

A precipitation reaction is usually a double displacement reaction. The ions that do not form the precipitate usually form the solution.
