Ionic Compounds Are Balanced
Table salt is an example of an ionic compound. Sodium and chlorine ions come together to form sodium chloride, or NaCl. The sodium atom in this compound loses an electron to become Na+, while the chlorine atom gains an electron to become Cl-

Answer:
2Mg + O₂ ⟶ 2MgO
Explanation:
Step 1. Start with the most complicated-looking formula (O₂?).
Put a 1 in front of it.
Mg + 1O₂ ⟶ MgO
Step 2. Balance O.
We have fixed 2 O on the left. We need 2O on the right. Put a 2 in front of MgO.
Mg + 1O₂ ⟶ 2MgO
Step 3. Balance Mg.
We have fixed 2 Mg on the right-hand side. We need 2 Mg atoms on the left. Put a 2 in front of Mg.
2Mg + 1O₂ ⟶ 2MgO
Every formula now has a coefficient. The equation should be balanced. Let’s check.
<u>Atom</u> <u>On the left</u> <u>On the righ</u>t
Mg 2 2
O 2 2
All atoms are balanced.
The balanced equation is
2Mg + O₂ ⟶ 2MgO
