1.	Question : (i) Write the electron dot structure for sodium, oxygen and magnesium. (ii) Show the formation of Na_(2)O and MgO by the transfer of electrons. (iii) What are the ions present in these compounds.
Answer» Solution :(a) Magnesium and Manganese (b) Formation LOSES twon electrons , and forms Magnesium ions to complete its OCTET. `Mg rarr Mf^(2+) +2^( e )` OXYGEN gains that two electrons to becomes `o^(2-)` `Mg^(2+) +O_(2) rarr MgO`
