Answer:
Mg²⁺
Explanation:
The electron configuration of Mg is [Ne]3s².
It is easier for Mg to get a complete octet by losing two electrons and exposing the neon core than it is to add eight electrons and get an Ar octet.
The most stable monatomic Mg ion is Mg²⁺.

Valence electrons are found AT THE OUTERMOST SHELL OF AN ATOM.
Valence electron refers to those electrons that are located furthest away from the nucleus of an atom, that is, they are found at the outermost shell. Valence electrons determine the chemical properties of an element and they are the only ones that get involved in chemical reactions with other elements.
