What happens when magnesium metal is added to an aqueous solution of aluminium ions?

Magnesium acts as an oxidant when added to the aluminum ions, and consquently it will oxidize the aluminum and take it out of the solution forming aluminum solid and then the mangesium itself will go into the solution since it will be oxidezed by the aluminum.
The equation would be:
Mg (s) + Al³⁺ (aq) → Mg²⁺ (aq) + Al (s)

What happens to OH in an aqueous solution when H3O increases?
it decreases
What happens if aluminium react with base?
Aluminium forms aluminate salt with a strong base (Alkali) in aqueous medium. 2Al + 2NaOH + 2H2O ----> 2NaAlO2 + 3H2
What happens when you evaporate an aqueous iodine solution?
It will leave a solid salt, consisting of the ions.

Products of Mg plus AlCl?
Mg+AlCl=MgCl+Al Magnesium+Aluminium chloride=Magnesium chloride+ Aluminium This happens because magnesium is a more reactive element then aluminum so chlorine swaps places and forms a new compound with magnesium.
What happens when electricity is passed through aqueous solution of sodium chloride?
In aqueous solution, H2 is evolved at the cathode (instead of sodium) and chlorine gas is collected at the anode.
What happens to ions in an aqueous solution?

What happens when you put magnesium in a base?
Magnesium does not seem to react with dilute aqueous alkalis or bases. However, it does react with acids like sulfuric acid by dissolving in it.
