Magnesium is a nutrient required by the body to remain healthy. For many processes in the body, magnesium is necessary, including muscle and nerve function regulation, blood sugar levels, and blood pressure and protein, bone, and DNA making.
Magnesium Ion has 12 protons and 10 neutrons. Mg and has an atomic number of 12, which means 12 protons are in it. We’re looking at the charge next, which is 2+. The plus tells us that electrons have been lost and that 2 tells us how many electrons have been lost.
I assume when you say particle, you mean atom because particles when referring to chemistry usually mean the electrons, protons, and the neutrons of an atom. Each proton has a charge or 1+, each electron has a charge of 1-, and neutrons dont have a charge. Since there are 12 protons, the cumulative proton charge would be 12+. The ten electrons make up a 10- charge. Add them together to get the net charge: +12 + (-10)= 2+
