Answer:

Magnesium Nitrate is an ionic compound formed by Magnesium

Mg+2

the cation and Nitrate

NO3-

the polyatomic anion.

In order for these two ions to bond the charges must be equal and opposite. Therefore, it will take two -1 nitrate ions to balance the one +2 magnesium ion. This will make the formula for Magnesium Nitrate Mg(NO3)2.

I hope this was helpful.
