Magnesium bromide is a compound and not an element. So question of metal or nonmetal does not arise witch is applied to elements only.
Sodium (metal) reacts with chlorine (nonmetal) to form sodium chloride. Magnesium (metal) reacts with oxygen (nonmetal) to form magnesium oxide. Aluminum (metal) reacts with sulfur (nonmetal) to form aluminum sulfide. Lithium (metal) reacts with nitrogen (nonmetal) to form lithium nitride. Potassium (metal) reacts with fluorine (nonmetal) to form potassium fluoride. Calcium (metal) reacts with phosphorus (nonmetal) to form calcium phosphide. Barium (metal) reacts with iodine (nonmetal) to form barium iodide. Titanium (metal) reacts with carbon (nonmetal) to form titanium carbide. Iron (metal) reacts with chlorine (nonmetal) to form iron(III) chloride. Zinc (metal) reacts with sulfur (nonmetal) to form zinc sulfide.
Magnesium is a metal. When it burns it forms compounds, to which the terms metal and nonmetal are generally not applied.
MgBr2 (magnesium bromide) is an ionic compound. It is formed by the transfer of electrons from magnesium, a metal, to bromine, a non-metal, resulting in the formation of magnesium cations (Mg²⁺) and bromide anions (Br⁻). The strong electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions constitutes the ionic bond in MgBr2.
Magnesium bromide IS a molecule, or more correctly, it is a formula unit. So, magnesium bromide doesn't HAVE any molecules. One formula unit of magnesium bromide has THREE ATOMS, and they are 1 magnesium atom and 2 bromine atoms (MgBr2).
Magnesium oxide has ionic bonds because it is between a Metal (Mg) and a Nonmetal (O) and Magnesium offers 2 of its electrons to Oxygen in order for Oxygen to form a full Octet (8 electrons in the valence).
As the name suggests, magnesium and bromine.
The terms "metal" and "nonmetal" are normally applied to elements, not compounds such as silver bromide.
Magnesium is a metal
No, bromide is not a metal. It is a chemical compound that contains the element bromine, which is a nonmetal. Bromide ions are formed when bromine gains an electron to achieve a stable electronic configuration.
No. It is a compound of a metal and a nonmetal. Magnesium on its own is a metal.
Magnesium bromide forms ionic bonds. Magnesium, a metal, donates electrons to bromine, a nonmetal, resulting in the transfer of electrons from magnesium to bromine to form a stable compound. This transfer of electrons leads to the formation of positively charged magnesium ions and negatively charged bromide ions, which are held together by electrostatic forces.
Metal, I believe.
Magnesium is a metal. It belongs to group 2.
In magnesium bromide, magnesium is a metal that forms cations (positively charged ions) by losing two electrons, while bromide is a nonmetal that forms anions (negatively charged ions) by gaining one electron. To balance charges, one magnesium ion combines with two bromide ions, resulting in the chemical formula MgBr2.
It is a metal.It is a rare earth metal.
Magnesium bromide is an ionic bond, where magnesium (metal) donates electrons to bromine (non-metal) leading to the formation of a compound with electrostatic forces holding the ions together.
