QUESTION

What is the chemical formula for magnesium bromide?

##MgBr_2##

The Magnesium atom has two outermost electrons that need pairing up and each bromine atom requires one electron. So, two Bromine atoms get attached to a magnesium atom. The positive part (Magnesium) is written first and Bromine is written latter. So the molecular formula becomes;

##MgBr_2##

Hope that helped! :)
