Answer to Problem 2.115AP

The systematic name of magnesia is magnesium (II) hydroxide and the chemical formula is Mg(OH)2.

Explanation of Solution

The systematic name of magnesia is magnesium (II) hydroxide.

The charge on magnesium (Mg2+) is +2 and the charge on hydroxide (OH) is 1.

The charge on both sides is balanced if two hydroxides are present. Therefore, the chemical formula of magnesia is Mg(OH)2.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Answer to Problem 2.115AP

The systematic name of Epsom salt is magnesium (II) sulfate and the chemical formula is MgSO4.

Explanation of Solution

The systematic name of Epsom salt is magnesium (II) sulfate.

The charge on magnesium (Mg2+) is +2 and the charge on sulfate (SO42) is 2.

The charge on both sides is balanced and only one sulfate ions is required. Therefore, the chemical formula of Epsom salt is MgSO4.

(c)
