Magnesium nitrate is an ordinary chemical, which can be obtained from a chemical supply company.
The compound name for Mg(NO3)2 is magnesium nitrate.
This is a 'Sngle Displacement' reaction ( A + BC --> AC + B
Mg(NO3)2 is soluble in water because nitrate (NO3-) salts are generally soluble, including magnesium nitrate.
Since Mg(NO3)2 dissociates into Mg^2+ ions and NO3^- ions in solution, the concentration of nitrate ions in a 0.25 M Mg(NO3)2 solution will also be 0.25 M.
Since you already have the chemical formula of the compound, it is not difficult to make up what elements it is made up from. The elements are magnesium (Mg), nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O). The hard part comes when you are given a more unfamiliar chemical name like tetrachloromethane, names like limestone and trade names.
When magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO3)2) is added to sodium hydroxide (NaOH), a double displacement reaction occurs, resulting in the formation of magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) and sodium nitrate (NaNO3). The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: Mg(NO3)2 + 2NaOH → Mg(OH)2 + 2NaNO3

Mg = 24.305 a.m.u. 2 N = 2*14.007 a.m.u. = 28.014 a.m.u. 6 O = 6*15.999 a.m.u. = 95.994 a.m.u. Total: 148.313 a.m.u. (in 6 significant figures) NB. Impossible to reach the 10th place numerically, because more accurate data are unreliable (according to IUPAC-standards)
To find the composition of each solid, use the equation for freezing point depression: ΔT = Kf * m, where ΔT is the freezing point depression, Kf is the cryoscopic constant for water, and m is the molality of the solution. Rearrange the equation to solve for m. Then, use the molality to calculate the moles of solute. From the moles of NaNO3 and Mg(NO3)2, calculate the mass of each in the 6.50 g solid.
First you have to get to a balanced equation 2KNO3+1Mg=1Mg(NO3)2+2K Then you do a mole to mole equation 2.5molKNO3x1mol Mg(NO3)2/(over)2molKNO3=1.25mol Mg(NO3)2 So your answer is 1.25mol Mg(NO3)2 But if you follow the rules of signicicant figures you need to have as many digits in your answer as the given. 2.5mol has 2 significant figures(digits) so your answer needs to have 2 digits Rounding to two digits we get 1.3molMg(NO3)2 Your answer is 1.3molMg(NO3)2
