Why does the ion in magnesium oxide stay together?
In accordance with Coulomb's Law, the positively charged magnesium ions attract the negatively charged oxygen atoms, and they form an alternating lattice. You never get two magnesium or two oxygen next to each other, because they repel each other; you get alternating magnesium and oxygen.
What happens to a particle in a solid when it gets cold?
the particle in a solid overcome the strong attraction between them the particle in a solid overcome the strong attraction between them the particle in a solid overcome the strong attraction between them
Do atoms have strong attraction to one another?
NO
Are intermolecular forces of attraction strong?
the strength depends on the molecule in question, but they are strong
Why magnesium oxide has a higher melting point than phosphorus oxide?
Sulphur dioxide is a covalent compound with a v-shaped structure. Because of this, the molecule is polar and can bond to other molecules due to permanent dipoles, which are relatively strong bonds. Magnesium oxide, on the other hand, is an ionic compound that forms an ionic lattice - due to the attraction between the positive Mg and negative O ions. Because of this, there are strong intermolecular bonds that hold the molecules more tightly together than permanent dipole and so more energy is required to break them than in SO2
Would you expect the ions in a sample of magnesium fluoride to have a strong or weak attraction for each other?
Strong Attraction
What element is added to juices to help build strong bones and teeth?
The elements needed for strong bones and teeth are Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorous, and Fluoride. Milk is a good source of these elements.
Is Hydrogen Fluoride a strong acid?
Hydrogen fluoride is a weak acid.
Why is there such a big difference between the melting points of sodium fluoride and magnesium oxide?
The melting point of the subtance depends on how strong the bonds are and every metal has a different melting point because of it.
This mineral works with calcium to build strong bones and teeth?
I understand you are asking for MINERALS not compounds or elements. In which case the minerals that make teeth strong are Calcite and Apatite, while in bones the mineral is mainly Calcite However, the elements needed for strong bones and teeth (which make up the minerals) are Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorous and Fluoride. Milk is a good source of these elements.

Why is magnesium used?
magnesium is usedb becoz itss well strong.
Which base is strong but never concentrated?
A 5 or 10% solution of strong base NaOH is not a concentrated solution. Magnesium Hydroxide.

Is sodium fluoride an acid or base?
Flouride is a base. It acts as a cleaning base in most toothpaste.
