Oxygen gains two electrons when it bonds to form a complete outer shell and magnesium loses two electrons when bonding to gain its full outer shell.
As electrons are negative, the oxygen (which gains electrons) will become negative and the magnesium (which loses electrons) will become positive.
The negative and positive ions will then attract to one another due to the magnetic pull of the positive and negative.
Answer:
Molar mass of MgCl2 is 95 g/mol
Mg = 24 g/mol and Cl = 35.5 ×2 = 71 g/mol
moles = mass given/ molar mass
= 2.7/95 = 0.028 mol
volume = 250/1000 = 0.25 dm3 (ml is the same as dm3)
molarity of MgCl2 = moles/volume
= 0.028/0.25
= 0.112 mol/dm3
Answer:
Explanation:
What would the answer be?
Non polar covalent bond. The Cl's electronegativity is the same since it's the same atom. Therefore, they will be nonpolar
