Which of the given equations correctly represents the neutralization of magnesium hydroxide by hydrochloric acid? $"a. "Mg(OH)_2(s)+2HCl(aq) rarr MgCl_2(aq) + 2H_2O(l)$ $"b. "Mg(OH)_2(s)+2HCl(aq) rarr MgO(s) + 2H_2(g) + Cl_2(g)$ $"c. "MgO(s)+2HCl(aq)$

We need a stoichiometric equation that represents the reaction between $Mg(OH)_2$ and $HCl$, and here it is............

$Mg(OH)_2(s) + 2HCl(aq) rarr MgCl_2(aq) + 2H_2O(l)$

Here, $1$ $"equiv"$ of magnesium hydroxide reacts with $2$ $"equiv"$ hydrochloric acid. In the reaction that was performed, there were $3.0*mol$ hydrochloric acid, and stoichiometric equivalence a $1/2$ $"equiv"$ of $"magnesium hydroxide"$, i.e. $3/2*mol$.

Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid according to the following equation: $Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -> MgCl_2(aq) +H_2(g)$. What mass of hydrogen will be obtained if 100 $cm^3$ of 2.00 mol $dm^-3$ HCl are added to 4.86 g of magnesium?

So you have the balanced equation, that's a good start. So what we're looking for is the ratio of hydrogen gas produced per the limiting reactant, let's find that first,...

Given $MgO$, $Li_2O$, $MgCl_2$, and $NaO$, why should $MgO$ have the highest lattice enthalpy?

Depending on your definition, the lattice enthalpy is the energy released when equivalent quantities of (gaseous) cation and anion bind together to form an ionic lattice. $Mg^(2+)$ is...

Is $2H_2(g) + O_2(g) rarr 2H_2O(l)$ the same as $H_2(g) + 1/2O_2(g) rarr H_2O(l)$?

$2H_2(g)+O_2(g) rarr 2H_2O(l)$ $36*g$ of reactants, and $36*g$ of products.......... VERSUS....... $H_2(g) + 1/2O_2(g)rarr H_2O(l)$ $18*g$ of reactants, and $18*g$ of products.......... Is mass conserved in each reaction? Well, clearly...

Which equation is correctly balanced: $A.$ $Al(s) + 3O_2(g) rarr Al_2O_3(s);$ $B.$ $Al(s) + 3O_2(g) rarr Al_2O_3(s);$ $C.$ $Al(s) + 3/2O_2(g) rarr Al_2O_3(s);$ $D.$ $2Al(s) + 3O_2(g) rarr 2Al_2O_3(s)?$

Alumina is $Al_2O_3$, which is the product of aluminum oxidation. None of your equations shows the correct formulae. We can rewrite the correct equation as: $2Al(s)+ 3/2O_2(g) rarr Al_2O_3(s)$ This...

This is the equation for burning hydrogen in air: $2H_2 + O_2 -> 2H_2O. How many H and O atoms are shown on the left-hand side of the equation?

Clearly, there are 4 hydrogen atoms, but 2 hydrogen molecules, and 2 oxygen atoms, but 1 oxygen molecule on the left hand side of the equation. And on the RHS,...

How do we classify the reaction, $Mg(s) + Cl_2(g) rarr MgCl_2(s)$?

involve a formal change in oxidation number........ And if we superscript the .......... $stackrel(0)"Mg" +stackrel(0)"Cl"_2(g)rarrstackrel(+II)"Mg"stackrel(-I)"Cl"_2$ The metal has been (typically) oxidized, and has donated electrons to the non-metal, and...

Magnesium and dilute hydrochloric acid react to produce magnesium chloride solution and hydrogen: $Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -> MgCl_2(aq) + H_2(g)$ What are two observations that could be made during the reaction?

There would also be some heat evolved as the metal reacted. But this is no substitute for doing the experiment yourself (safely of course, while you wear safety specs to...

Excess hydrochloric acid in your stomach can be neutralized by magnesium hydroxide, which forms magnesium chloride and what?

$"2HCl + Mg(OH)"_2"$$rarr$$"MgCl"_2 + "2H"_2"O"$ This is a reaction, a type of double replacement reaction. The products are a salt and water. By writing the reactants on the left side...

Why don't we write $K(s) + 2H_2O(l)rarr K(OH)_2(aq) + 1/2H_2(g)$?

$"Potassium metal"$ is oxidized by water to give $"potassium hydroxide"$ and $"dihydrogen gas"$: $K(s) +H_2O(l) rarr KOH(aq) + 1/2H_2(g) uarr$ And given the experiment, we would find half an equiv...

In the reaction $Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -> MgCl_2(aq) + H_2(g)$, what role does magnesium play?

In the chemical equation given to you $"Mg"_ ((s)) + 2"HCl"_ ((aq)) -> "MgCl"_ (2(aq)) + "H"_ (2(g))$ magnesium is a reactant, which is why you see...
