Determine the valence of the MgCl2 compound.

The molecule as a whole is electrically neutral. Therefore, it is possible to determine the valence of the atoms of the elements that make up the MgCl2 molecule. Here, the divalent magnesium atom (since the element is in the main subgroup of the II group of the periodic table) is associated with 2 monovalent chlorine atoms.
Mg (2+) Cl2 (-).
