    Answer:Potassium

    Explanation:

    Magnesium is in the second column and therefore has 2 electrons in its outermost shell. It would tend to lose two electrons and form a + 2 ion. Potassium is in the first column and therefore has 1 electron in its outermost shell. It would tend to lose one electron and form a + 1 ion.
