nataly862011 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Each pair of shared electrons is a covalent bond which can be represented by a dash.

Explanation:

In a Lewis dot structure, the central atom can share electrons through bonds with the surrounding atoms, and this can look like a dash between the atoms.

Magnesium chloride is a salt formed with ionic bonds between one magnesium ion and two chloride ions. Magnesium has two electron
katrin [286]

Answer:

The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compound formed from the transfer of electron(s). One atom of the element loses electron(s) while the other atom gains electron(s).

The compound Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound . The bond between an atom of magnesium and 2 atoms of chlorine is an ionic bonding.

The valency electron of magnesium is 2 electron , for the atom of magnesium to  attain octet rule, it will easily lose it 2 electrons to the chlorine atoms.

The chlorine atom on the other hand has 7 valency electrons, to attain octet configuration it will most likely gain 1 electron to become stable.

The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.
