You need one sodium atom to provide the extra electron for one chlorine atom, so they combine together 1:1. The formula is therefore NaCl. Again, noble gas structures are formed, and the magnesium oxide is held together by very strong attractions between the ions. ... The formula of magnesium oxide is MgO.ionic bond
Formula and structure: Calcium oxide chemical formula is CaO and its molar mass in 56.0774 g mol-1. The molecule is formed by the calcium cation Ca+2 and the oxygen anion O-2, which form a ionic bond. The calcium oxide ionic lattice is cubic and similar to NaCl lattice, with an ion surrounded by 6 opposite charge-ion.Oxygen gains two electrons to have an octet. The ionic bond between ions results from the electrostatic attraction of opposite charges. The final formula of magnesium oxide is MgO.
