Does magnesium hydroxide dissolve in water?

Magnesium oxide does not "dissolve" in hydrochloric acid. Dissolution is a physical change. When magnesium oxide is mixed with hydrochloric acid, a chemical reaction takes place: Mg(s) + 2HCl ---> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Is potassium cloride dissolving in water a chemical change?

Potassium metal does not dissolve in water, it is so reactive that it rips water molecules apart releasing hydrogen gas and combining with the remaining hydroxyl group to form potassium hydroxide (potash lye) which then dissolves in the water. This chemical reaction releases so much heat that it ignites the hydrogen gas that was emitted which produces water vapor/steam and a light purple flame (caused by excited potassium ions).
