Explanation:

Step1: Determine Mg's ionic charge

Magnesium (Mg) is a Group 2 element, so it loses 2 electrons to form a +2 ion: $\text{Mg}^{2+}$

Step2: Determine Na's ionic charge

Sodium (Na) is a Group 1 element, so it loses 1 electron to form a +1 ion: $\text{Na}^{+}$

Answer:

$\text{Mg}^{2+}$
$\text{Na}^{+}$
