Yes, Mg is Magnesium, it is number 12 on the Periodic Table


The electron number is where on a periodic table?

The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of any atom of any element. Because all atoms are neutral, the number of protons = number of electons. So the atomic number is the number of electrons. You may be confusing an atom with an ion. Atoms of elements on the right side of the periodic table have a stronger attraction for electrons than atoms of elements on the left side, For example, when a chloride atom get close enough to an atom of Sodium, the electron in the outer shell of the Na atom will move to the outer shell of the Cl atom. Now the Cl atom has 17 protons and 18 electrtons making a -1 charged ion. The Na atom now has 11 protons and 10 electrons making a +1 charged ion. Elements in column 1 of the periodic table form +1 ions. Elements in column 2 of the periodic table form +2 ions. Elements in column 7 of the periodic table form -1 ions. Elements in column 6 of the periodic table form -2 ions.


What is H- on periodic table?

H- is the symbol for the hydride ion, which is a negatively charged hydrogen atom (H^-).


Which area on the periodic table contains atoms which are likely to form covalent bonds?

The nonmetal elements in the upper right corner of the periodic table are more likely to form covalent bonds due to their higher electronegativity. Additionally, elements in the middle of the periodic table, known as metalloids, also tend to form covalent bonds due to their intermediate properties between metals and nonmetals.


What is an aion and where can you find it on the periodic table?

An aion is a positively or negatively charged particle that forms when an atom gains or loses electrons. Aions are not found on the periodic table itself, but elements that commonly form aions can be identified by their position in the periodic table based on their electron configuration.

What group of elements in the periodic table are most likely to be in the gaseous form?

Noble Gases, Group 8A


Describe the number of valence electrons in each atom as you move down group 2 in the periodic table?

As you move down group 2 in the periodic table, the number of valence electrons in each atom remains the same, at 2. This is because elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, regardless of the period they are in.


What is the position of diamond on the periodic table?

Diamond is not listed on the periodic table as it is a form of carbon, which is located in Group 14 of the periodic table.


What two kinds of atoms form a covalent bond?

The closer they are to the center of the periodic table, the more likely they are to form covalent bonds. The closer to the edges, the less likely.


Elements are arranged by atomic number in the what?

Elements are arranged by atomic number in the periodic table. The atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. This arrangement allows elements with similar properties to be grouped together in columns called groups or families.
