Which atom of sulfur and magnesium for a positive ion during ionic bonding?
Magnesium is the cation and sulfur is the anion.
Which atom will form a positive ion during ionic bonding sulfur or magnesium?
Magnesium will form a positive ion during ionic bonding. Sulfur will form a negative ion during ionic bonding. In ionic bonding, metals form positive ions and nonmetals form negative ions.
What is the symbol for the magnesium ion the forms when magnesium metal reacts with sulfur?
Mg2+
What is the symbol for the magnesium ion that forms when magnesium metal reacts with sulfur S?
Mg2+
How does the size of a magnesium ion with a 2 positive charge compare with that of a sodium ion with a single positive charge?
A magnesium ion will be smaller because there will be a greater Zeff on the electrons in the magnesium ion due to a greater number of protons in the nucleus.

Which element has a larger radius magnesium or sulfur?
What has a larger radii, a sulfur atom or sulfied ion and why
What ions are formed with magnesium and sulfur?
Magnesium is located in Group II in the periodic table. Every element in Group II will form an ion with the charge of 2+ by losing two electrons. Hence, magnesium will form the magnesium ion: Mg2+. Sulfur is located in Group VI in the periodic table. Every element in Group VI will form an ion with the charge of 2- by gaining two electron. Hence, sulfur will form the sulfur ion: S2-.

Is sulfur a negative or positive ion?
Negavtive ... 2-
What kind of ion does magnesium form?
Mg ^ 2+ :D
Symbol and charge for magnesium?
It depends if it the ion of magnesium, if it is the ion, then it is positive. If not, then it is neutral.
