No it is basic.
magnesium carbonate + sulfuric acid = magnesium oxide= carbon dioxide
The word equation for the reaction between magnesium carbonate and sulfuric acid is Magnesium Carbonate + Hyrdocholric Acid > Magnesum Chloride + Carbon Dioxide + Water.
The word equation for the reaction between magnesium carbonate and nitric acid is: magnesium carbonate + nitric acid -> magnesium nitrate + carbon dioxide + water.
Yes, magnesium carbonate can neutralize acid by reacting with it to form magnesium salt and carbon dioxide. This reaction helps to reduce the acidity in a solution.
Magnesium acetate in solution, crabon dioxide released as a gas.
Magnesium citrate is a combination of magnesium and citric acid, often used as a laxative, while magnesium carbonate is a compound of magnesium and carbonic acid, commonly used as an antacid.
Magnesium Oxide and Magnesium Carbonate are very different, Magnesium Oxide is Magnesium fused with Oxygen whereas Magnesium Carbonate is Magnesium fused with Carbon and Oxygen. The suffix "ate" means that an oxygen atom is involved. This added element (carbon) means that there will be a slight change in product. The chemical formula for Magnesium carbonate is MgCO3 whereas Magnesium oxide is MgO. See how there are two extra oxygens and one extra carbon? Add them together and you have CO2 and this is your difference. The difference in mixing magnesium oxide with sulfuric acid rather than mixing magnesium carbonate with sulfuric acid is that sulfuric acid and Magnesium carbonate create CO2 whereas Magnesium Oxide and sulfuric acid do not.
To make magnesium sulfate, you would use sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and magnesium carbonate (MgCO3) as the starting materials. When sulfuric acid is added to magnesium carbonate, it will react to form magnesium sulfate, carbon dioxide, and water.
The products that are formed will be magnesium salt, water and carbon dioxide. Exactly what salt is made depends the acid used. Hydrochloric acid produces magnesium chloride; sulphuric acid produces magnesium sulphate; nitric acid produces magnesium nitrate.
When more magnesium carbonate is added to hydrochloric acid and the fizzing stops, it could mean that all the acid has reacted with the magnesium carbonate to form magnesium chloride, carbon dioxide, and water. This reaction consumes the acid, causing the fizzing to cease.
The reaction between magnesium carbonate and sulfuric acid produces magnesium sulfate, carbon dioxide gas, and water. This is a double displacement reaction where the magnesium in the carbonate compound swaps places with the hydrogen in the acid.
Magnesium Carbonate + Hydrochloric Acid ------> Magnesium Chloride + Water + Carbon Dioxide The previous answer said magnesium hydroxide + carbon dioxide, but then you will have canceled out the chlorine, which due to the law of conservation of mass, is impossible.
