Can calcium displace from magnesium?

As calcium is more reactive than magnesium calcium will displace the magnesium and will become calcium nitrate and is left over with magnesium on it's own

Hydrogen gas is released when calcium and water react.

Would magnesium react with calcium nitrate?

no, it wouldn't calcium is above magnesium in the reactivity series which means that magnesium can't oxidize calcium. calcium can oxidize magnesium so calcium would react with magnesium nitrate with formation of metallic magnesium and calciumnitrate.


What is the difference between calcium hydroxide and Magnesium hydroxide?

How are synthetic detergents better than soaps?

They can be used in hard water as well in acidic solution. The reason being that sulphonic acids and their calcium and magnesium salts are soluble in water but the fatty acids and their calcium and magnesium salts are insoluble.

Would calcium nitrate and magnesium react?

Calcium nitrate and magnesium will not react since calcium is more reactive than magnesium and so, magnesium does not displace calcium (See Reactivity Series). However, if Calcium nitrate is in aqueous solution (dissolved in water), some bubbles may be seen when Magnesium is added to it, since the Magnesium would be reacting with the water and producing hydrogen bubbles.


What are the benefits of a magnesium-calcium formula?

High levels of calcium supplementation suppress magnesium absorption, so to overcome the magnesium deficiency that can be caused by high level calcium supplementation. Magnesium deficiency causes a decrease in the production, by the kidneys, of dihydroxy vitamin D-3 which results in inefficient absorption of calcium by the intestines and further loss of magnesium by the kidneys. Excess calcium in the body will result in calcium deposits such as kidney stones, arthritis...they will disappear after taking extra magnesium.
