Well most gases are lighter then metals:D
Because Na has one too many electron to be stable, while Mg has 2. once they loose those electrons, they will be come ion. loosing one electron will give the ion a 1+ charge, and loosing 2 will create a 2+ charge
Group 1a elements (the first column on the left side of the Periodic table) always release one electron to form positive ions with a charge of +1. Group 7a nonmetals (the <em>second to the last </em>column on the right side- the rightmost column are the noble gases) always desire to gain one electron to form negative ions with a charge of -1.
Since their charges are equal and opposite, they will always combine in a 1:1 ratio.
