the combining power of a atom is, as i understand given by the group number. if the group number is 1-4 then the combining power is the group number. if group number is 5-8 then the combining power is 8 minus the group number. i.e: the group number of magnesium is 2 so the combining power is 2. the group number of oxygen is 6 so the combining power is 8-6=2.

What is the number that represents the combining ability of an atom?
By combining ability do you ability to bond with other atoms? If so, you want to examine the number of electrons in the atoms outermost shell. NA has 1 electron in its outermost shell so it needs 7 more to fulfill the octet rule. It would bond with an atom like Cl.
