The hydrates of the salts lose water at different temperatures during decomposition. [12] For example, in the trihydrate MgCO 3 ·3H 2 O, which molecular formula may be written as Mg(HCO 3)(OH)·2H 2 O, the dehydration steps occur at 157 °C and 179 °C as follows: [12] Mg(HCO 3)(OH)·2(H 2 O) → Mg(HCO 3)(OH)·(H 2 O) + H 2 O at 157 °C
It can be formed through the reaction of dilute solutions of carbonic acid (such as seltzer water) and magnesium hydroxide (milk of magnesia). It can be prepared through the synthesis of magnesium acetate and sodium bicarbonate: Mg(CH 3 COO) 2 + 2 NaHCO 3 → Mg(HCO 3) 2 + 2 CH 3 COONa. Magnesium bicarbonate exists only in aqueous solution.
Magnesium oxide (Mg O), or magnesia, is a white hygroscopic solid mineral that occurs naturally as periclase and is a source of magnesium (see also oxide).It has an empirical formula of MgO and consists of a lattice of Mg 2+ ions and O 2− ions held together by ionic bonding.
The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure. Units of solubility are given in grams of substance per 100 millilitres of water (g/(100 mL)), unless shown otherwise. The substances are listed in alphabetical order.
The molecular mass (m) is the mass of a given molecule. ... but individual water molecules have molecular masses which range between 18.010 564 6863(15) Da (1 H
Molecular weight (M.W.) (for molecular compounds) and formula weight (F.W.) (for non-molecular compounds), are older terms for what is now more correctly called the relative molar mass (M r). [8] This is a dimensionless quantity (i.e., a pure number, without units) equal to the molar mass divided by the molar mass constant .

The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
