Show the formation of `Na_(2)O` and `MgO` by the transfer of electrons.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Formation of `Na_(2)O`
`underset(2,8,1 "Sodium atom")(Na) to underset(2, 8 "sodium ion")(Na^(+))+ underset("electron")e^(-)`
`underset(2,6 "oxygen atom")O+ underset("electron oxide ion")(2e^(-)) to underset(2,8)(O^(2-))`

Formation of MgO
`underset(2,8,2 "Magnesium atom")O+ underset("Magnesium ion")(2e^(-)) to 2e^(-)`
`underset(2,6 "Oxygen atom")O+ 2e^(-) to underset(2,8 "oxide ion")(O^(2-))`
