yes! it does because magnesium is higher in reactivity series than iron , so the magnesium atom would displace or push out the iron atom from the compound and join with chloride, leaving the pure iron out of the compound
Mg + FeCl2 -- MgCl2 + Fe

Does iron react with chlorine to form iron chloride?
Yes, it would.
What happens when iron reacts with chlorine?
A chemical reaction ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are you thick?? two halogens cannot react there shall be no reaction between iodine and chlorine
Which metals react with acid to produce hydrogen?
I only know 3 metals that react with acids to produce hydrogen. They are Zinc, iron and magnesium. There are 3 acids which react with them: and It will produce hydrogen gas which is the lightest known gas and is flammable :)
How could you prove that magnesium is a more reactive metal than zinc or iron?
Magnesium react with water and burn easily in air.
Does magnesium react with sodium chloride?
Na + MgCl2 ----> NaCl + Mg is the chemical equation so yes
Why doesnt zinc react with magnesium nitrate or iron chloride?
Magnesium and iron are both more electromotive then zinc, so zinc can't displace them in a compound.
What does magnesium and iron chloride make?
most likely Magnesium-Chloride(MG?CL?) and Iron(FE?) The numbers depend on the oxidation states of iron and magnesium
Does magnesium react with chlorine?
Yes. At standard temperature and pressure, magnesium in contact with chlorine will react to form magnesium chloride.
Do iron and magnesium oxide react chemically?
No. Iron cannot displace Magnesium from Magnesium oxide
When magnesium and hydrochloric acid react what do they produce?
Magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas
What is the balanced formula for iron chloride plus sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride ans iron chloride don't react.
When Mg and chlorine react together what type of compound will they form?
The product of reaction is magnesium chloride - MgCl2.
What solution will not react with magnesium?
The solutions having organic non polar solvents as Benzene, Hexane, carbon tetra chloride do not react with Magnesium.
Does magnesium react with magnesium chloride?
Na + MgCl2 ----> NaCl + Mg is the chemical equation so yes
Will magnesium nitrate and dilute hydrochloric acid react?
yes they do. and magnesium chloride and nitric acid are formed
Does iron react with magnesium nitrate?
No.
Word equation for hydrochloric acid and magnesium?
Mg + 2HCl → MgCl2 + H2 magnesium+Hydrochloric acid→magnesium chloride+water (H2O)
