What is the number of electrons that were lost gained to form Mg2 plus?

Mg 2.8.2 likes to lose 2 electrons to become Mg 2.8, when it loses them it becomes an Mg 2+ ion.


A Mg atom differs from a Mg2 plus ion in that the Mg atom has?

A Mg atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, resulting in a neutral charge, while a Mg^2+ ion has lost two electrons, giving it a positive charge. This difference in electron configuration affects the reactivity and chemical properties of each.


Does a Mg2 plus ion have two more protons than an atom of Mg?

Absolutely not. Magnesium is magnesium, whether it's an ion or not. So it must have 12 protons. The number of electrons, however, is different. Neutral (non-ionic) magnesium has 12 electrons; the magnesium ion (Mg+2) has 10 electrons, which means it is isoelectronic with neon.


Are sodium ion magnesium ion(Mg2) all isoelectronic?

Sodium ions (Na⁺) and magnesium ions (Mg²⁺) are not isoelectronic. Isoelectronic species have the same number of electrons. Na⁺ has 10 electrons (11 protons minus 1 electron), while Mg²⁺ has 10 electrons (12 protons minus 2 electrons). Therefore, although both Na⁺ and Mg²⁺ have the same number of electrons, they differ in their nuclear charge, which affects their chemical behavior.


What has the same number of electrons as sodium?

There is no ion with the same number of electrons (= 11). Mg+ and Ne- do NOT exsist in normal chemistry. However Na+ and Mg2+ and Ne all have (equally) 10 electrons.


What change in electron structure occur when Mg atom become a Mg ion?

Magnesium is a group 2A element, and has 2 valence electrons. Thus, for it to become an ion (Mg^2+) is loses those 2 valence electrons.


How many electrons does mg2 plus HAVE?

Magnesium's atomic number is 12. Thus, neutral magnesium would have 12 electrons. Mg2+ therefore has 2 less electrons, or 10.
