Question

Identify the base in the following neutralization reaction:

(Use this key to select your answer: Reactant 1+ Reactant 2 → Product 1 + Product 2):
Mg(OH)2(aq) + HNO3(aq) → Mg(NO3)2 + H₂O
Product 1
Reactant 2
Reactant 1
Product 2

Answer 1

it's c

Step-by-step explanation:

maybe...I don't know how I works it out but it is c

Answer 2

Answer: c – Reactant 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since HNO3, (Nitric Acid), is an acid, that leaves Mg(OH)2 to be the Base in the reaction.

Hence the answer is Reactant 1
