MgS - Mg stands for Magnesium, S stands for Sulfur.No numbers mean you have 1x Magnesium and 1x Sulfur.

Na2SO4 - Na stands for Sodium, S stands for Sulfur and O stands for Oxygen.The 2 after the Na means you have 2x Sodium and the 4 after the O means there are 4x Oxygen. Na2SO4 - Stands for Sodium Sulfate, whereas Na2SO3 stands for Sodium Sulfite.

Ca(OH)2 - Ca stands for Calcium, O stands for Oxygen and the H stands for Hydrogen. 1x Calcium and 2x Oxygen and Hydrogen.
