HCl is a strong acid.

MgCl2 is a salt , not an acid.

NB when writing chemical formulas, remember, single letter elements are always a CAPITAL letter. e.g. Hydrogen (H). Elements with two letters are written ; first letter is a CAPITAL letter, second letter is lower (small) case, e.g. Magnesium (Mg) ; Neither 'MG' nor 'mg'

105 g of MgCl2 contains how much mol MgCl2?

First, we calculate the molar mass of MgCl2, which is 95.21 g/mol. Then, we divide the given mass by the molar mass to determine the number of moles of MgCl2. So, 105 g of MgCl2 contains approximately 1.10 moles of MgCl2.


Does MgCl2 reacts with acid?

Yes, MgCl2 will react with acid to form magnesium chloride and release hydrogen gas. The reaction can be summarized as: MgCl2 + 2HCl -> MgCl2 + H2↑.


What is the cation for MgCl2?

The cation for MgCl2 is Mg2+.


MgCl2 plus H2O why is it a good conductor?

Because this reaction results in a solution containing free ions; a strong strong acid (due to the Cl) and a strong base (due to the Mg). Strong acids and strong bases are good conductors. (Do note that the general solution is pretty much neutral, just slightly acidic as Cl forms a stronger acid than the base formed by Mg) Regards, Zananok
