Best Answer

hydroxides are insoluble with exceptions of Ba, Sr, Ca and all ions of group 1 with a hydroxide are soluble...

therefore, magnesium hydroxide is a solid.

The question of its solubility in anything does not relate to whether it is solid or not. Temperature is also involved. Magnesium hydroxide is a solid at "room temperature". Carbon dioxide is a gas at room temperature, but a solid at low temperatures.

Magnesium is a solid at room temperature. Magnesium's melting point (the point at which it shifts from a solid state to a liquid state) is 1202°F (650 °C). Magnesium's boiling point (the point at which it shifts from a liquid state to a gaseous state) is 1994°F (1091°C).
Yes. Magnesium and alloys of Magnesium is used to make light-weight parts. In chemistry lab, it was common to take a thin metal strip of magnesium and burn it. It burns very brightly. BE VERY CAREFUL. HAVE A FIRE EXTENGUISHER AT THE READY.
