Is magnesium fluoride an acid base or salt?
Neither, MgCl2 is to be considered a neutral salt.
Is MgCl an acid base or salt?
What is MgCl ??? If you mean 'MgCl2' then it is a SALT.
What is the element produced when magnesium metal reacts with hydrochloric acid?
The element produced is HYDROGEN gas. Remember the general acid reaction equations. Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Alkali = Salt +Water Acid + Base = Salt +Water Acid + Carbonate = Salt +Water + Carbon Dioxide In this case use the first eq'n Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) = MgCl2(aq) + H2(g) .
What type of reaction does Magnesium Hydroxide plus Hydrochloric Acid make?
An acid base reaction producing salt and water. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl >> MgCl2 + 2H2O
What kind of salt does Hydrochloric acid and magnesium hydroxide make?
Magnesium chloride. MgCl2
Is magnesium fluoride an acid base or salt?
Neither, MgCl2 is to be considered a neutral salt.
Is mgCI2 a base?
No. MgCl2 is a salt of a strong acid and a strong base, therefore it is neutral.

What type of reaction does Magnesium Hydroxide plus Hydrochloric Acid make?
An acid base reaction producing salt and water. Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl >> MgCl2 + 2H2O
What is formed when an acid and a base is mixed?
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
What kind of salt does Hydrochloric acid and magnesium hydroxide make?
Magnesium chloride. MgCl2
Is Salt formed when an acid or a base react chemically?
Yes. An acid-base reaction forms a salt and water. acid+ + base− = salt + water
How does salt neutralise?
I'm assuming you mean a salt neutralising an acid or base- This can not actually happen, because a salt is already 'Neutralised' An acid can neutralise a base, and a base neutralise an acid, but when Base+Acid reacts, a salt is formed. Adding a salt to a acid or base solution will only make it salty.
What forms when base react with acid they form salt and what?
acid+ base= salt + water
What is the general form for the simplest type of acid base reaction?
Acid + base salt + water
What are the reactants and products in a neutralization reaction?
In a neutralisation reaction, an acid and a base will react to form a salt and water. This salt will be either acidic, basic or neutral depending upon the pH of the reactions. General rules:weak acid + strong base → basic salt + waterstrong acid + weak base → acidic salt + waterstrong acid + strong base → neutral salt + waterweak acid + weak base → neutral salt + water
When an acid reacts with a base a salt is produced along with another product. What are the products?
Remember the general reaction equation Acid + Base = Salt + Water So the answer t your question is 'water'. NB Remember too other general acid reactions.; Acid + Alkali = Salt + Water Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide. Given below are a few examples, using hydrochloric acid. 2HCl + MgO = MgCl2 + H2O HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O 2HCl + Zn = ZnCl2 + H2 2HCl + CaCO3 = CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
