It has two elements. Magnesium shows +2and Cl shows -1.
most likely Magnesium-Chloride(MG?CL?) and Iron(FE?) The numbers depend on the oxidation states of iron and magnesium
The oxidation numbers of atomic magnesium and atomic chlorine are 0. They react with each other to form magnesium chloride. After the formation of the salt, magnesium ions have +2 oxidation number where that of chloride ions is -1.
+1- Apex
I don't think you can have MgCl stable. MgCl2 is Magnesium Chloride.
I don't know! That's what we're trying to figure out!! Oh MY GOSH!!

It should say, "Magnesium and CHLORINE make up most of the ions in seawater." Not chloride.
Three. Two chlorine atoms and one magnesium atom.
MgCl2 is the chemical formula of magnesium chloride.
Magnesium+ Chloride= Magnesium ChlorideMg2+ + 2Cl1- = MgCl2the formula of magnesium chloride is MgCl2Magnesium and chlorine

Magnesium Chloride is MgCl2.
Magnesium chloride plus hydrochloric acid is magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas.

-2 oxidation state
