it will release hydrogen gas
If too little HCl is added to Mg, the reaction may proceed sluggishly or not go to completion. This would result in less hydrogen gas being produced and potentially leaving behind unreacted magnesium.
The reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and magnesium (Mg) produces magnesium chloride (MgCl2) and hydrogen gas (H2). The balanced chemical equation is 2HCl + Mg -> MgCl2 + H2.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between HCl and Mg is: Mg + 2HCl -> MgCl2 + H2. One mole of Mg reacts with 2 moles of HCl. Calculate the moles of Mg in 5.2 grams using the molar mass of Mg. Then use the mole ratio to find the moles of HCl needed, and finally calculate the mass of HCl using its molar mass.
The chemical formula for magnesium metal is Mg, and for hydrochloric acid is HCl.
my pharmacist says they are the same thing.. i just called him b/c i was prescribed the HCL this time and I was wondering why...
IT CHANGES INTO Mg(OH)2
HCl and Mg are two chemicals. There is no variable involved - independent or otherwise!
Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) --> H2 (g) + MgCl2 (aq) Hydrogen

Nothing. I take 3 7.5 mg Vicodin and 4 800 mg IBU a day.

Mg + 2HCl = MgCl2 + H2
Hydrochloric acid + magnesium ---> Magnesium chloride + hydrogen gasUnbalanced: HCl + Mg ---> MgCl2 + H2Balanced: 2HCl + Mg ---> MgCl2 + H2
Well it depends on the acid. For example in Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) the Magnesium would react with the HCl and replace the Hydrogen creating Magnesium Chloride and Hydrogen gas ( 2HCl + Mg ----> MgCl2 + H2 ). However mix it with other acids and nothing could happen or an even more violent reaction could occur. It all depends on what exact compound you mix it with.
