it will become positivly charged
can depend charge depends on what other atom(s) it is bonded to in the molecule. if you were bonding 1 magnesium with 1 chlorine(magnesium chloride) then you would have a +1 charge magnesium ion.the variable is the type of bond and what it is bonded to
If magnesium (Mg) has a full valence shell, it would have a 2+ charge. This is because magnesium has 2 valence electrons and would need to lose these electrons to achieve a full valence shell, resulting in a 2+ charge.
Magnesium-26 has 12 protons and 12 neutrons, so the total number of electrons would also be 12 in order to balance the charge and make the atom neutral.
The charge on the tin atom would be +4 if four electrons have been removed. This is because each electron carries a negative charge of -1, so removing four electrons results in a net positive charge of +4 on the atom.
A magnesium atom would need 6 electrons to complete its highest occupied electron shell. In practice, a magnesium atom almost never does this, because the energy required would be too great. Instead, the magnesium atom transfers 2 electrons to one or more atom that are more electronegative than magnesium and thereby forms a magnesium ion with an electrical charge of +2. In this ion, the highest occupied shell of a magnesium atom is completely empty of electrons.
negative
The charge on a magnesium ion with 10 electrons (Mg2+) is +2.
Magnesium has 12 protons, so if there are only 10 electrons, then it will have a +2 charge.
Magnesium has 2 electrons in its outermost electron shell. As a result, you would expect magnesium to form ions with a charge of +2 by losing these two outer electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.

Mahnesium is a bivalent element; the cation has the electrical charge 2+.

The charge on the tin atom would be +4 if four electrons have been removed. This is because each electron carries a negative charge of -1, so removing four electrons results in a net positive charge of +4 on the atom.
To calculate the number of electrons removed, we first determine the charge of a single electron (approximately -1.6 x 10^-19 C). Next, we divide the total desired charge (0.1 μC) by the charge of a single electron and take the absolute value to determine the number of electrons removed. This calculation gives us around 6.25 x 10^11 electrons.
Magnesium has 12 electrons, with 2 electrons in its outermost shell. To have a full octet, magnesium needs to lose these 2 electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, resulting in a 2+ charge as it becomes a cation.
Magnesium would lose two electrons when reacting with fluorine to form magnesium fluoride. Magnesium, with two electrons in its outer shell, loses these electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration, while fluorine, needing one electron to complete its octet, gains one electron from magnesium.
