Other than the reaction in (b), suggest another reaction which milk of magnesia can undergo. Write a chemical equation for this reaction.

2Ch3cooh + mg(oh)2 --> (ch3coo)2mg + 2h20

Explanation:

Reaction of milk of magnesia with acetic acid.

A solution of milk of magnesia and universal indicator in water is stirred while acetic acid is added. The indicator changes color as the acid is neutralized. As the suspended solid is consumed, the solution becomes clear.

the number of valence electrons for each molecule or ion is shown beneath the structure. remember hydrogen will not have more than two electrons. this hydrogen is part of a covalent bond (sharing two electrons). a double bond here would cause hydrogen to share four electrons with phosphorus.

practical process described pest part of scientific investigation.

because practical knowledge is powerful then therotical knowledge.
