Magnesium ions have a 2+ charge, while chloride ions each have 1- charge. In order to cancel out the charges to create a stable, neutral compound, the formula must be MgCl2.
The name of the compound with this formula is "magnesium sulfide".
The chemical formula of magnesium chloride is MgCl2.
there can be many. a few examples are KClO4 H2SO4 HNO3 BaSO4 CaCO3
I assume you mean MgCO3, not MgCo3 (the first is magnesium carbonate). Be careful when writing CO, because Co is cobalt, and CO is carbon and oxygen. Mg is Magnesium, C is carbon and O is oxygen. Therefore the elements present are magnesium, carbon and oxygen.
Milk of magnesia is a compound. There are three elements within the milk of magnesium. Magnesium, hydrogen, and oxygen, are the three elements within the milk of magnesia compound.
MgCl2 contains the elements magnesium and chlorine.
dont know and dont care
the formula for an ionic compound that contains the elements magnesium and sulfur.Mg + H2 SO4 -> Mg SO4 + H2. .
When compounding magnesium and chlorine you get the compound, magnesium chloride, MgCl2, dissolved in seawater, is an abundant, natural source of the very useful metal magnesium. Magnesium is a common component of alloys. Alloys are produced by combining a pure metal with one or more other elements to form a new substance with desirable properties.
The compound calcium chlorate contains the elements calcium (Ca), chlorine (Cl), and oxygen (O).
Magnesium (Mg) and chlorine (Cl) are the elements present in magnesium chloride (MgCl2). MgCl2 is an ionic compound consisting of one magnesium ion (Mg2+) and two chloride ions (Cl-).
No, it is a compound, not a mixture. Its formula is MgO, and it contains Magnesium and Oxygen (two fairly common elements).
It is a compound, because it contains more than one element. An element is smallest unit that maintains all of its properties. When you combine elements, you get compounds. MgS04 contains the elements Mg (magnesium), S (sulfur) and O (oxygen).
No, magnesium hydroxide is not a binary compound. A binary compound consists of only two different elements, whereas magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)₂) contains three elements: magnesium (Mg), oxygen (O), and hydrogen (H). It is classified as a hydroxide compound, specifically an inorganic compound containing the hydroxide ion (OH⁻).
Magnesium chloride also known as MgCl2 is composed of two elements: magnesium (Mg) and chlorine (Cl). Therefore the answer to the question is two elements: magnesium and chlorine.
Yes it is. The formula for magnesium sulfate is MgSO4. So you can see that there are three elements that make up the compound magnesium sulfate, and by definition, a chemical compound contains two or more different elements chemically combined.
Copper Chloride is a compound because it is comprised of two elements. These two elements are Copper and Chlorine
