Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Ionic bond or electrovalent bond is formed between two atoms by complete transference of electron(s) from one atom to another, to complete their octet. Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound. Formula of magnesium chloride is MgCl2. Two electrons are lost by magnesium and two are gained by chlorine. Because there is electron loss and gain between chlorine and magnesium, magnesium chloride is an ionic compound, and because there is electrostatic attraction between them, it is also an electrovalent compound.
