This is an ion exchange reaction between magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO3)2) and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) to form calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2) and magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2).
- Reaction Conditions
This reaction occurs under normal conditions (room temperature, atmospheric pressure).
- Reaction Process
When magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO3)2) reacts with calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2), they exchange ions to form calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2) and magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2).
- Phenomena Occurring
When the reaction occurs, a white precipitate of magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) appears.
