For the equation to balance out, you would need 2 H2O on the product. That will give a total of 1 Carbon, 4 Hydrogens and 4 Oxygens on each side.
Maybe to not get rained on.
Hahhahahaha I ain't sure tho
You did not include the statements but since magnesium chloride is ionic substance that we know that magnesium and chlorine formed an ionic bond. Therefore your statement most likely will talk about how one magnesium atom gave up 2 electrons while two chlorine atoms took 1 electron. The reaction looks like Mg+2Cl⇒MgCl₂.
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
