Was: the composition of epsom salt is magnesium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid
Should be: Epsom Salts are Magnesium sulfate, usually with some water attached to it.
Magnesium hydroxide is a base, hydrochloric acid is an acid. When Hydrochoric acid is not in water, it's a gas at normal temperatures - thus not able to be made into a dry powder.
Acid + Base = salt + water. In this case it would make Magnesium Chloride + water.

What is the chemical reaction between Epsom salt and water?
When Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) is dissolved in water, it dissociates into magnesium ions (Mg2+) and sulfate ions (SO4 2-). This dissociation process is a physical change, not a chemical reaction, as the chemical composition of Epsom salt remains the same.
Does physical change occur when epsom salt is dissolved?
Yes. The way I think about it is if you can change it back (in this case, you could filter the epsom salt out, or evaporate the water, drying it) then it is a physical change.
Is glauber salt the same as epsom salt?
No, Glauber's salt and Epsom salt are not the same. Glauber's salt, also known as sodium sulfate, is a compound with the chemical formula Na2SO4. Epsom salt, on the other hand, is magnesium sulfate heptahydrate with the chemical formula MgSO4·7H2O. While both are salts, they have different chemical compositions and properties.
Is Epsom salt and water a mixture or a solution?

Can I use salt in place of Epsom salts to make silly putty?
Unfortunately, you cannot use salt in place of Epsom salts to make silly putty. Epsom salts are magnesium sulfate, which helps give silly putty its unique properties like stretchiness and bounciness. Regular table salt does not have the same chemical composition and will not produce the desired results.
