Write down the reaction equations: MgCl2 – Mg – MgO – Mg3 (PO4) 2 – H3PO4 H3PO4

1. When heated, magnesium chloride decomposes into magnesium and chlorine.

MgCl2 = Mg + Cl2.

2. When magnesium burns, magnesium oxide is formed.

2Mg + O2 = 2MgO.

3. Magnesium oxide is a basic oxide that reacts with acids. We make the equation for the reaction of magnesium oxide and phosphoric acid. Magnesium phosphate and water are formed.

3MgO + 2H3PO4 = Mg3 (PO4) 2 +3 H2O.

4.To obtain phosphoric acid from magnesium phosphate, we compose the equation for the reaction of magnesium phosphate with silicic acid. Formed magnesium silicate (precipitates) and acid.

Mg3 (PO4) 2 + 3H2SiO3 = 3MgSiO3 + 2H3PO4.

5. Let’s make the equation of the reaction of acid with alkali. We get calcium phosphate and water.

H3PO4 + 3KON = K3PO4 + 3H2O.
