- Detailed information about the equation Mg(NO3)2 + Ba(OH)2 -> Ba(NO3)2 + Mg(OH)2:
- The above equation is an ion exchange reaction between Magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO3)2) and Barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2) to form Barium nitrate (Ba(NO3)2) and Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2).
- Reaction conditions:
- This reaction occurs under normal conditions (room temperature, standard pressure).
- Reaction process:
- Initially, Magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO3)2) and Barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2) are like separate ions in the solution.
- When these two solutions come into contact with each other, the Magnesium ion (Mg2+) and Barium ion (Ba2+) exchange positions with each other.
- Finally, Barium nitrate (Ba(NO3)2) and Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) will be formed.
- Phenomena occurring:
- When the reaction occurs, a white precipitate of Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) can be seen in the solution.
