When added to water would MgO produce a base?

Yes! MgO+H2O=Mg((OH)2), Magnesium Hydroxide (a base).


Is mgo an acid?

No. MgO is a base. How is it a base you say? Look at the following chemical equation: MgO + H20 ----> MgOH + OH- And then, MgOH -----> Mg+ + OH- So I guess you get two for one. I'm only a chemistry student, so you might want to look somewhere else too for an answer.


Is MgO an acidic oxide?

No. Like the other oxides of alkaline earth metals, it is basic. MgO + H2O --> Mg(OH)2


Is MgO a strong base?

Yes. It is. This material has been used widely in catalysis area because of its strong basicity.


Is MgO an acidic or basic anhydride?

MgO is a basic anhydride because it reacts with water to form the base magnesium hydroxide.


What are some Common uses for MgO?

What is Mgo used for? MDO is D2, Diesel, Buy MgO?


What is the pH of MgO?

Well, darling, MgO is a basic oxide, so it doesn't have a pH value like your lemonade. The pH scale is for aqueous solutions, not solid compounds. So, the pH of MgO is technically undefined. But hey, thanks for trying to keep me on my toes!


Is MgO and CO2 a basic or acidic anhydride?

MgO is a basic anhydride because it reacts with water to form a base, magnesium hydroxide. CO2 is an acidic anhydride because it forms an acid, carbonic acid, when dissolved in water.


What happens when magnesium oxide is put in hydrochloric acid?

When magnesium oxide is put in hydrochloric acid, it will react to form magnesium chloride and water. The chemical reaction can be represented as: MgO + 2HCl -> MgCl2 + H2O. This reaction is a classic example of an acid-base reaction where the base (MgO) reacts with the acid (HCl) to form a salt (MgCl2) and water.


When 24.3g of magnesium is combusted with oxygen it yields 40.3g MgO How much magnesiun needs to be burned to yield 12.1g MgO?

To determine how much magnesium is needed to yield 12.1g of MgO, we can use the ratio of magnesium to MgO from the initial combustion. From the data provided, 24.3g of magnesium produces 40.3g of MgO. The ratio of magnesium to MgO is 24.3g Mg / 40.3g MgO, which simplifies to approximately 0.603g Mg per gram of MgO. Thus, to yield 12.1g of MgO, we need about 12.1g × 0.603g Mg/g MgO ≈ 7.29g of magnesium.


How many moles are in 106 grams of MgO?

To determine the number of moles in 106 grams of MgO, you need to divide the given mass by the molar mass of MgO. The molar mass of MgO is 40.3 g/mol (24.3 g/mol for Mg + 16 g/mol for O). Thus, 106 g / 40.3 g/mol = approximately 2.63 moles of MgO.


How many moles are present in 1g of MgO?

2 Mg(OH)2 have 10 atoms.
