Multiple Choice

Magnesium hydroxide is insoluble. Write the net ionic equation for the reaction that takes place between a solution of magnesium chloride and a solution of sodium hydroxide.

A) MgCl₂(aq) + NaOH(aq) $\rightarrow$ MgOH(s) + NaCl₂(aq)
B) MgCl₂(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) $\rightarrow$ Mg(OH) ₂(s) + 2NaCl(aq)
C) Mg²⁺(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) $\rightarrow$ Mg(OH) ₂(s)
D) Mg²⁺(aq) + 2Cl^- (aq) + 2Na⁺(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) $\rightarrow$ Mg(OH) ₂(s) + 2NaCl(s)
E) Mg²⁺(aq) + OH^-(aq) $\rightarrow$ MgOH(s)
