Magnesium Chloride is a compound. It contains Magnesium(Mg) and Chlorine(Cl). It is also a pure salt. Magnesium chloride is chemically bonded together.
A compound
Three. Two chlorine atoms and one magnesium atom.
A magnesium atom gives two electrons to two chlorine atoms to form a magnesium ion and two chloride ions.
In magnesium chloride, MgCl2, there are two chlorine atoms for every magnesium atom as chlorine is found as a compound.
Magnesium chloride is an neutral ionic compound. In neutral ionic compounds, the positive charge of the cations must balance out the negative charge of the anions. In the case of magnesium chloride, magnesium is the cation with an ionic charge of +2 and chlorine is the anion with an ionic charge (each) of -1. Since two chlorine anions together have a charge of -2 total, they balance out the one magnesium cation with a charge of +2.
calcium and magnesium - but also carbonate if you were to choose a third
Two.
No. Magnesium Chloride (MgCl2) is an ionic compound. Magnesium loses 2 electrons and the two chloride atoms gain one each.
The two elements in magnesium chloride are magnesium and chlorine.
Two
Sodium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride
No, magnesium chloride is not an atom. It's a molecule. It's composed of an atom of magnesium (Mg) and two atoms of chlorine (Cl), and has MgCl2 as its chemical formula.
Yes, in magnesium chloride, both the magnesium atom and the two chlorine atoms have complete outer electron shells of eight electrons.
There is no equation in the question, only two pair of two reactants.
