+2
Let the oxidation number of Mg is x
x+2(-1)=0
x=+2
So, the oxidation number of Mg is +2.
Magnesium is a divalent element; the ion is Mg2+.
+2 oxidation state
Mg has oxidation number of +2.
x + 2(-2)=0
x - 4=0
x=4.

Mg++ is fully oxidized.
The oxidation state of magnesium in magnesium hydroxide is +2 no matter what reaction you are looking at.
The oxidation state of magnesium in magnesium hydroxide is +2 no matter what reaction you are looking at.
0 in the elemental form +2 in its compounds
Mg has +2, S has +6, O has -2 Explanation: O (oxygen) generally has -2 oxidation state ( exceptions exist like peroxides) Mg(magnesium) is an alkaline earth metal which has fixed oxidation state of +2 in its compunds. S(sulphur) shows variable oxidation state.. To get its oxidation state: we use the fact the total sum of oxidation state of all atoms in a compound is zero. For ions this sum is equal to the charge on the ion. Let oxidation state of S be x. Then we have: +2 (for Mg) + (-2)*4(for 4 O atoms) + x = 0 Which gives x=+6.
Mg = +2 oxidation state P = +5 oxidation state O = -2 oxidation state
Mg++ is fully oxidized.
Mg has an oxidation state of +2 & hydroxide has the oxidation state of -1. Formula of Magnesium hydroxide is Mg(OH)2
