MgOMagnesium: 2 Valance Electrons (Charge is +2)Oxide: 6 Valance Electrons (Charge is -2)Hint: Oxide has a charge of -2 and so does Oxygen. Check the periodic table for the elements that have a -2 charge (group 16) and you will find oxygen as the first element in that group. Periods define how many energy levels the element has, just so you know. Oh and this is ionic.Hope this helps!
12. Nitrogen has 5 valance e- and Oxygen has 6 valance e-. Add 1 more because it has a 1- charge.

F3- does not form a Lewis structure because F (Fluorine) has 7 valance electrons. F3 totals 21 valance electrons +1 for the - charge for a total of 22. However when you attempt to bond 3 F atoms together in a Lewis structure there is only space for 20 valance electrons. This is not a problem for atoms like Br or I because they can fit those extra electrons in the near by d orbital. Fluorine being a period 2 element does not have a d orbital and can not form a F3- Lewis structure. -JCS
Electrons charge is a negative
Manganese has two electrons in its valance shell, Mn is a metal so it has a tendency to give away electron (2 of them, so the charge is -2) while Bromide is a non-metal and it adopts electrons to complete its valance shell and has a positive two charge. so the Mn gives away 2 electrons and Br gains 2 electrons so the overall charge of the compound is zer0. MnBr.

Protons, Neutrons and Electrons Protons: they have a positive charge and they are inside the nucleus Neutrons: they have a neutral charge and they are also inside the nucleus Electrons: They have a negative charge and orbit outside the nucleus within valance rings :)
the atomic number is equal to the number of electrons(-) and protons(+): that is why elements have no charge, as a neutron is neural
The relationship between positive and negative electric charges is in their number of electrons. This causes them to be attracted or repel each other based on this charge.
In a neutral atoms, the numbers of protons and electrons must be the same, because each of these particles has the same magnitude of electrical charge.

Magnesium as an atom has two valance electrons. To complete it's octet, it must lose two electrons. Losing two electrons will make Mg have 12 protons and 10 electrons therefore having a +2 charge.
Electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge.
Formal charge is used when creating the Lewis structure of a molecule, to determine the charge of a covalent bond. Formal charge is the difference between the valence electrons, unbound valence electrons, and half the shared electrons.

Cations are ions with a positive charge. Anions have a negative charge.
