Compound formula for Mg and S?
Magnesium sulfide has the molecular formula of MgS. It is wholly comprised of the elements magnesium (Mg) and sulfur (S).
What is the formula for the compounds formed by Fe2 Cl?
The net ionic charge on the compound is zero. So if you have two chloride ions (Fe+ Cl- Cl-) the charges will cancel. Thus the formula is FeCl2.
What is the formula for the ionic compound for mg br?
Mg+2 Br-1 ------> these are the ions with their chargesMg+2 Br-1 Br-1 -----> the charges have to add up to zero by adding one negative Br atom to cancel out the +2 positive Mg atomMgBr2 -----> simplifyName: Magnesium bromide
How do you write the chemical formula of an ionic compound?
To write the chemical formula of an ionic compound, you balance the charges of the ions to achieve neutrality. This involves using subscripts to ensure that the positive and negative charges cancel out. The formula is typically written using the smallest whole number ratio of ions.
What is the charge for silver chloride?
Silver chloride has a charge of -1. This is because silver typically has a charge of +1, and chloride has a charge of -1, so when they combine in a compound like silver chloride, the overall charge is 0.
What is the formula for an ionic compound that contains the elements magnesium and chlorine?
The formula for an ionic compound containing magnesium and chlorine is MgCl2. Magnesium has a +2 charge, while chlorine has a -1 charge, so two chlorine ions are needed to balance the charge of one magnesium ion.
How many chloride ions are needed to cancel the 2 charge of magnesium in magnesium chloride (MgC12)?
Two.

What is the formula for ionic compound formed between magnesium and fluorine?
These are the ions and their charges: Mg+2 F-1The charges have to add up to zero, so two -1 fluorine cancel out one +2 magnesium ion: Mg+2 F-1 F-1Simplify: MgF2
What is the formula for the ionic compound for mg br?
Mg+2 Br-1 ------> these are the ions with their chargesMg+2 Br-1 Br-1 -----> the charges have to add up to zero by adding one negative Br atom to cancel out the +2 positive Mg atomMgBr2 -----> simplifyName: Magnesium bromide

What is the combination of symbols that shows the ratio of elements in a compound?
The ratio is called the chemical formula. Naming these compounds is called nomencalture. Example: NaCl sodium (Na) has a +1 charge and chlorine (Cl) has a -1 charge the charges cancel out and therefore the ratio is one to one Another Example: MgCl2 magnesium (Mg) has a charge of +2 and chlorine (Cl) has a charge of -1. It takes two chlorines to cancel out one magnesium so the ratio is one to two.
What is the charge for silver chloride?
Silver chloride has a charge of -1. This is because silver typically has a charge of +1, and chloride has a charge of -1, so when they combine in a compound like silver chloride, the overall charge is 0.
What is the correct formula for a compound combining Al3 and S2?
The correct formula for a compound combining Al³⁺ and S²⁻ is Al₂S₃. This is determined by balancing the charges of the ions so that they cancel out in the compound.
What is the difference between magnesium sulfate and magnesium chloride.what is the use of these salts in agriculture soil?
Well the main difference between the two is that they are totally different compounds. Magnesium sulfate has derivatives of sulfur and oxygen when magnesisum chloride is a derivitive of chlorine. Magnesium sulfate has a polyatomic ion (sulfate); magnesium chloride is made of a cation and an anion. In the magnesium sulfate, the magnesium and the sulfate ion cancel the charges so the both have a charge of 0. In magnesium chloride, the magnesium cation has a charge of 0 while the chloride anion has a charge of 2-.As for the uses of salts in agriculture, MgSO4 is often encountered as the heptahydrate epsomite (MgSO4·7H2O), commonly called Epsom salt. In agriculture and gardening, magnesium sulfate is used to correct magnesium deficiency in soil, since magnesium is an essential element in the chorophyll molecule. It is most commonly applied to potted plants, or to magnesium-hungry crops, such as potatoes, roses, tomatoes, peppers and cannabis. The advantage of magnesium sulfate over other magnesium soil amendments (such as dolomitic lime) is its high solubility.As for the magnesium chloride, its uses include using for dust and erosion control and for experimenting anti lipid effects in animals.
Why is the formula for milk of magnesia written MgOH2 instead of MgO2H2?
I think what you mean is Mg(OH)2 vs MgO2H2. This is an ionic compound because it has a metal (magnesium). In it, Mg+2 is the cation (positive ion) and OH- is the anion. Because an ionic compound must have a zero net charge, there needs to be two OH- ions to cancel the +2 charge of the magnesium. so in the first formula it is shown that there are two OH- ions, but the second one is incorrect because OH is one ion and the elements are not separately written like that in an ionic compounds formula. hope this helps
