No - MgCl2 is a molecule
Te answer depends on the ratio of MgCl to WHAT!
If unbalanced the molecule MgCl will have one atom of Mg and one of Cl and therefore two atoms. in real life you would not have MgCl, you would have MgCl2 (where 2 is a subscript). This means there is one atom of Mg and two of Cl and therefore 3 atoms in total.
The name for the ionic compound MgCl is magnesium chloride.
"ionic".
MgCl2 is a salt composed of magnesium and chloride ions. It is not an acid or a base.
NaCl or MgCl
The mass remains constant during the reaction. HCl + Mg → MgCl + H2
magnesium chloride
The Chemical Formula for Magnesium Chloride is MgCl2.
ans:NaCl,MgCl
MgCl is magnesium chloride with a 1:1 ratio of magnesium to chlorine atoms, while MgCl2 is magnesium chloride with a 1:2 ratio of magnesium to chlorine atoms. This means that MgCl has one chlorine atom for every magnesium atom, while MgCl2 has two chlorine atoms for every magnesium atom.
Magnesium chloride is represented as MgCl₂ because it consists of one magnesium ion (Mg²⁺) and two chloride ions (Cl⁻). Magnesium has a +2 charge, while each chloride ion has a -1 charge. To balance the charges, two chloride ions are needed for every magnesium ion, resulting in the formula MgCl₂. This reflects the stoichiometry of the compound, ensuring overall electrical neutrality.
