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

Infer Magnesium and sodium atoms are about the same size How does the size of a magnesium ion with a 2 charge compare with that of a sodium ion with a single charge?

The sodium ion will be larger. Because magnesium has one more proton than sodium, its nuclei pull harder on the electrons, reducing the ion's radius. This means that the magnesium ion is smaller.

What will be the final charge of magnesium ion when it has lost its 2 electrons?

When magnesium loses its two electrons, it forms a magnesium ion with a charge of +2. This occurs because the neutral magnesium atom has 12 protons and 12 electrons, and losing two electrons results in a net positive charge. Therefore, the final charge of the magnesium ion is +2, represented as Mg²⁺.
