magnesium has two valence electrons and oxygen has six valence electrons. the electronegativity difference between the two elements is 2.13.
how can the octet rule be used to explain the bonding between magnesium and oxygen?
oxygen needs access to two electrons to satisfy the octet rule. magnesium prefers to lose two valence electrons to satisfy the octet rule. oxygen can remove two electrons from magnesium, forming ions; leading to an ionic bond.
oxygen needs to lose six electrons to satisfy the octet rule. magnesium needs access to six valence electrons to satisfy the octet rule. magnesium can remove six electrons from oxygen, forming ions and leading to an ionic bond.
oxygen needs access to two electrons to satisfy the octet rule. magnesium prefers to lose two valence electrons to satisfy the octet rule. magnesium and oxygen can share two electrons, leading to a covalent bond.
