Mg(OH)2
Same 2 - as always. When forming hydroxide one of those negative charges is taken up by the hydrogen. This is a way to figure polyatomic ion charges that is discouraged by chemistry teacher who want you to memorize the charges.
So, two oxygen's, and a total of 4 -, modified to 2 - by the hydrogens.
In Mg2P2O7, magnesium (Mg) has an oxidation state of +2, phosphorus (P) has an oxidation state of +5, and oxygen (O) has an oxidation state of -2. The sum of the oxidation states for each element in the compound must equal zero due to its neutrality.
The oxidation state of Br in MgBr2 is -1. Magnesium (Mg) typically has an oxidation state of +2, which means that the two bromine atoms in MgBr2 must have an oxidation state of -1 to balance the charge.
The highest oxidation state of a transition metal is typically found in group 7b (Mn, Tc, Re) elements, reaching up to +7 oxidation state.
Mg has an oxidation state of +2 & hydroxide has the oxidation state of -1. Formula of Magnesium hydroxide is Mg(OH)2
+2 for Mg +4 for C -2 for each O
The oxidation state of magnesium in magnesium hydroxide is +2 no matter what reaction you are looking at.
In Mg2P2O7, magnesium (Mg) has an oxidation state of +2, phosphorus (P) has an oxidation state of +5, and oxygen (O) has an oxidation state of -2. The sum of the oxidation states for each element in the compound must equal zero due to its neutrality.
2NaCl + Mg(OH)2 --> MgCl2 + 2NaOH Make sure to put the parentheses around the hydroxide. There is a difference between Mg(OH)2 and MgOH2.
The oxidation state of magnesium in magnesium hydroxide is +2 no matter what reaction you are looking at.
+2
The oxidation state of Mg2+ is +2. Magnesium typically forms cations with a +2 charge by losing 2 electrons.
The oxidation state of magnesium in magnesium hydroxide is +2 no matter what reaction you are looking at.
The oxidation state of Br in MgBr2 is -1. Magnesium (Mg) typically has an oxidation state of +2, which means that the two bromine atoms in MgBr2 must have an oxidation state of -1 to balance the charge.
0 in the elemental form +2 in its compounds
The highest oxidation state of a transition metal is typically found in group 7b (Mn, Tc, Re) elements, reaching up to +7 oxidation state.
The oxidation state of magnesium in MgO is +2. Magnesium typically forms ionic compounds where it loses two electrons to achieve a stable electronic configuration, resulting in an oxidation state of +2 in MgO.
No such molecule as MgOH2 . I think you mean 'Mg(OH)2' Note the use of brackets. The '2' indicates that there are two hydroxide (OH) anions . Mg ( magnesium metal , and OH2 (an obtuse way of writing the water formula), If water and magnesium came in to contact they would immediately react. So MgOH2 is nonsensical.
