Atoms that have lost or gained one or more electrons are called ions.

In studying chemistry, one should learn how to read the periodic table and periodic trends in the table.. Of course, you should also know the abbreviations of each element in it so that you can identify what element is in chemical structures. Memorizing and knowing it by heart is the best way. You should also study what we call chemical nomenclature which is naming combinations of elements. Elements when combined may form ionic compounds, bonds or acids. Knowing what element reacts with another will also be necessary that's why the concept of chemical reactions must be further studied.
Mg + 1/2 O2 → MgO
1 mol = 24 g of Mg
X mol = 12 g of Mg
x = 0.5 moles of Mg
Mg :MgO = 1:1 (coefficient from equations using mole ratio)
So
0.5 moles of MgO
1 mol MgO = (24+16) g = 40 g
0.5 moles of MgO = 0.5 × 40
= 20 g of MgO produced
If you know the Table of elements you can see it on.
