Which salt is made of magnesium oxide plus nitric acid?

Magnesium oxide is a salt, but nitric acid isn't, and I don't believe that you would get a salt by mixing these two substances. Perhaps you meant to ask what salt is produced by mixing magnesium hydroxide and nitric acid; in that case you would produce the salt magnesium nitrate.


How many moles of magnesium nitrate are produced when magnesium reacts with 8 moles of nitric acid?

Mg2+(s) + 2HNO3(l)= Mg(NO3)2(aq) + H2(g) since the only mole value given is 8 I must assume this is the limiting reactant. Because of the 2:1 ratio of Nitric acid to Magnesium Nitrate, meaning there must be 2 moles Nitric acid for every 1 mole Magnesium Nitrate formed, 4 moles of Magnesium nitrate will be formed.
