MgO lewis structure and the form of ionic bond
May 26，2026
Magnesium Oxide (MgO) is an ionic compound, which means it doesn't have a typical Lewis dot structure like covalent compounds.
Magnesium has 2 valence electrons. It loses these 2 electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons. It gains 2 electrons to complete its octet. The two electrons lost by magnesium are gained by oxygen.
