MgCl2(aq) + 2KOH(aq) --> Mg(OH)2(s) + 2KCl(aq)It is the molar ratio in the equation. Every mole of magnesium chloride requires 2 moles of potassium hydroxide. Thus 3 moles would need 6 moles of alkali for complete reaction. We don't have that much, so potassium hydroxide is the limiting reactant and we can only use 2 moles of the magnesium chloride and produce 2 moles of magnesium hydroxide.
The reaction between magnesium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid would have these products. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + 2H2O
Magnesium chloride. MgCl2
Magnesium hydroxide plus hydrochloric acid yields magnesium chloride plus water. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl = MgCl2 + 2H2O
An acid base reaction producing salt and water. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl >> MgCl2 + 2H2O
MgOH(aq) + 2HCl(aq)= 2H2O(l) + MgCl2(aq)
Magnesium hydroxide plus hydrochloric acid yields magnesium chloride plus water. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl = MgCl2 + 2H2O
The reaction between magnesium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid would have these products. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + 2H2O
Magnesium chloride. MgCl2
Magnesium hydroxide plus hydrochloric acid yields magnesium chloride plus water. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl = MgCl2 + 2H2O
An acid base reaction producing salt and water. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl >> MgCl2 + 2H2O
Take the example, of Magnesium Hydroxide plus Hydrogen Chloride. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + 2H2O
Assuming a idealized double displacement reaction. 2LiCl + Mg(OH)2 --> MgCl2 + 2LiOH
2HCl + Mg -> H2 + MgCl2

MgOH(aq) + 2HCl(aq)= 2H2O(l) + MgCl2(aq)
magnesium + dilute acid=magnesium dilute hydroxide and hydrogen
Potassium hydroxide is the limiting agent.
