The pH of Magnesium oxide is 10.3, which is slightly alkaline.
pH will be 13
Magnesium oxide is an oxide, without pH.
Magnesium Oxide
Magnesium + copper oxide --> magnesium oxide + copper
On progression from magnesium oxide to barium oxide, the metal ion has an increasing atom size, with a decreasing ionisation energy and can easily lose one electron to form more the hydroxide ions (or in another point of view leads to lower activation energy and hence faster reaction) this is why there is an increase in pH.

This compound is magnesium oxide - MgO.

Carbon dioxide absorbed in water form carbonic acid, H2CO3; the pH become acidic and you can test the solution with a pH paper. A simple test for the magnesium oxide, MgO, is to measure the refractive index (this value is 1,736 for MgO.
Magnesium is an element. Magnesium oxide is a compound formed from magnesium and oxygen. Magnesium oxide often serves as a magnesium supplement.
Magnesium oxide contains magnesium and oxygen.
The difference is magnesium oxide contains oxide ions ,whereas aluminium oxide doesn't.
If you look on the pH scale, water is neutral, so adding magnesium oxide will turn the water from neutral to an alkali. I hope this helped:)
