MgCl is magnesium chloride with a 1:1 ratio of magnesium to chlorine atoms, while MgCl2 is magnesium chloride with a 1:2 ratio of magnesium to chlorine atoms. This means that MgCl has one chlorine atom for every magnesium atom, while MgCl2 has two chlorine atoms for every magnesium atom.
MgCl2 is a salt composed of magnesium and chloride ions. It is not an acid or a base.
I don't think you can have MgCl stable. MgCl2 is Magnesium Chloride.
MgCl2 is an ionic compound. It is composed of magnesium cations (Mg2+) and chloride anions (Cl-), which are held together by ionic bonds.
The balanced equation for the reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and magnesium (Mg) to form magnesium chloride (MgCl2) and hydrogen gas (H2) is: 2 HCl (aq) + Mg (s) → MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)
The products of the neutralization reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) are magnesium chloride (MgCl2) and water (H2O). This reaction is represented by the equation: 2HCl + Mg(OH)2 → MgCl2 + 2H2O.
No - MgCl2 is a molecule
MgCl2 is a salt composed of magnesium and chloride ions. It is not an acid or a base.
The Chemical Formula for Magnesium Chloride is MgCl2.
To determine the enthalpy change (ΔH) for the reaction of solid magnesium chloride (MgCl2(s)) dissolving in water to form aqueous magnesium chloride (MgCl2(aq)), you can use the standard enthalpies of formation ((ΔH_f^\circ)) of the substances involved. The reaction can be represented as: [ \text{MgCl}_2(s) \rightarrow \text{MgCl}_2(aq) ] The enthalpy change for the reaction can be calculated using the formula: [ ΔH_{reaction} = ΔH_f^\circ(\text{MgCl}_2(aq)) - ΔH_f^\circ(\text{MgCl}_2(s)) ] By substituting the standard enthalpies of formation for MgCl2(aq) and MgCl2(s) from tables, you can find the ΔH for the dissolution process.
1 formula unit of MgCl2 = 59.758g 31.4g MgCl2 x 1 formula unit/59.758g = 0.525 formula unit of MgCl2
MgCl does not exit. It is MgCl2 which is magnesium chloride. It is made with IONIC bonds.
I don't think you can have MgCl stable. MgCl2 is Magnesium Chloride.
The high difference in electronegativity between Mg and Cl, and the fact that Mg is a metal and Cl is a non-metal, means that it's an ionic bond. Magnesium has two valence electrons; one chlorine takes one of them, another chlorine takes the other. The formula is therefore MgCl2.

If unbalanced the molecule MgCl will have one atom of Mg and one of Cl and therefore two atoms. in real life you would not have MgCl, you would have MgCl2 (where 2 is a subscript). This means there is one atom of Mg and two of Cl and therefore 3 atoms in total.
