This means that there is 1 magnesium atom and 2 chlorine atoms.
The "2" means that there's 2 of that atom. You could ditch the "2" but its not 'right' and if your a student having the 2 will give you a higher mark.

What is MgCl ??? If you mean 'MgCl2' then it is a SALT.
What name for MgCl2?
I don't think you can have MgCl stable. MgCl2 is Magnesium Chloride.
Calculate the formula mass for MgCl2?
The molar mass of magnesium chloride is 95,205 g.
What is the chemical formula of magnesium and chloride?
Magnesium chloride has MgCl2 as its chemical formula. This ionic salt loves water, and will "suck it out of the air" to form MgCl2(H2O)x as it absorbs moisture. More can be found on this substance in the Wikipedia post, and a link is provided.
Why mgcl2 is better coagulant then kcl for As2S3?
In order to coagulate, there must be more ions. ... But there will be three ions when MgCl₂ dissociates (Mg²⁺ and 2Cl⁻), also, there will be more charge on Mg (Mg²⁺) than when KCl dissociates.

How many atoms does MgCL have?
If unbalanced the molecule MgCl will have one atom of Mg and one of Cl and therefore two atoms. in real life you would not have MgCl, you would have MgCl2 (where 2 is a subscript). This means there is one atom of Mg and two of Cl and therefore 3 atoms in total.
What does MgCl2 stand for in the table of elements?
MgCl2 stands for magnesium chloride. Magnesium (Mg) is an element and chlorine (Cl) is an element, both found in the periodic table of elements. MgCl2, however, is a compound made of these two elements, and it would not be found in the table of elements.
Is mgcl soulble?
It's MgCl2, and yes, it is soluble. It's an ionic compound, and ionic compounds are very polar. Water is polar as well, so magnesium chloride easily dissolves in water.
