    The atomic weight of Magnesium (Mg) is about 24.305 g / mol.

    Magnesium when forms an ion can donate two electrons hence forming Mg2+. Since it can donate two electrons, therefore it has an equivalence of 2 equivalence per mole, therefore:

    equivalent weight = (24.305 g / mol) * (1 mol / 2 equivalence)

    equivalent weight = 12.1525 g / equivalence
