Problem: Milk of Magnesia antacid reacts with acid to form water and magnesium chloride solution. How many liters of 0.1 M HCl react with a tablet containing 0.10 g magnesium hydroxide?
Plan: Knowing the mass of Mg(OH)2 that reacts with the acid and the acid concentration, and find the acid volume.
Solution: Writing the balanced equation:
Converting from mass of Mg(OH)2 to moles:
