Magnesium has a total of 12 electrons. The electron configuration would be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. Therefore, 2 electrons in it's outer shell.
it needs six more electrons to have a full outer valence shell.
There are 2 outer shell electrons in Magnesium. Remember, it's in the "s" orbital, which can only accomodate 2 electrons.
Magnesium has 2 electrons in its outer most shell and these 2 are the valency electrons.
yes
No. Argon has eight electrons in its outer shell and magnesium has two electrons in its outer shell.
Magnesium has a total of 12 electrons. The electron configuration would be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. Therefore, 2 electrons in it's outer shell.
Magnesium has two electrons in its outermost shell.
Yes, helium only has two electrons which makes up its valence electrons (also known as an outer shell) and magnesium also has two valence electrons.
it needs six more electrons to have a full outer valence shell.

Magnesium has 2 electrons in its outer most shell and these 2 are the valency electrons.
yes

2 electrons orbit in the outer shell. If its a neutral atom, then it will have the same number of electrons as protons. Magnesium has 12 protons and 12 electrons.

2 Because Magnesium only has 2 electrons in it's outer shell
