Explanation / Answer

First thing the no of protons is the atomic no of the atom.
Second net charge on th eion formed is the difference betwen the no of protons and electrons.

12 protons : The atom with atomic no 12 is Magnesium. Atomic symbol Mg.
The net charge on the ion will be = no of protons - no of electrons
   = 12 - 10 = +2
The ion with the given no of protons and electrons will be Mg2+.

25 protons : The atom with atomic no 25 is Mangnese. Atomic symbol Mn.
The net charge on the ion will be = no of protons - no of electrons
   = 25 - 21 = +4
The ion with the given no of protons and electrons will be Mn4+.

35 protons : The atom with atomic no 35 is Bromine. Atomic symbol Br.
The net charge on the ion will be = no of protons - no of electrons
   = 35 - 36 = -1
The ion with the given no of protons and electrons will be Br-.

15 protons : The atom with atomic no 15 is Phosphorous. Atomic symbol P.
The net charge on the ion will be = no of protons - no of electrons
   = 15 - 18 = -3
The ion with the given no of protons and electrons will be Mg3-.

47 protons : The atom with atomic no 47 is Silver. Atomic symbol Ag.
The net charge on the ion will be = no of protons - no of electrons
   = 47 - 46 = +1
The ion with the given no of protons and electrons will be Ag+.

79 protons : The atom with atomic no 79 is Gold. Atomic symbol Au.
The net charge on the ion will be = no of protons - no of electrons
   = 79 - 76 = +3
The ion with the given no of protons and electrons will be Au3+.
