Was: the composition of epsom salt is magnesium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid
Should be: Epsom Salts are Magnesium sulfate, usually with some water attached to it.
Magnesium hydroxide is a base, hydrochloric acid is an acid. When Hydrochoric acid is not in water, it's a gas at normal temperatures - thus not able to be made into a dry powder.
Acid + Base = salt + water. In this case it would make Magnesium Chloride + water.
