A novel process for obtaining magnesium from sea water involves several reactions. Balanced chemical equation for each step of the process.
A novel process for obtaining magnesium from sea water involves several reactions. Balanced chemical equation for each step of the process. The first step is the decomposition of solid calcium carbonate from seashells to form solid calcium oxide and gaseous carbon dioxide. The second step is the formation of solid calcium hydroxide as the only product from the reaction of the solid calcium oxide with liquid water. Solid calcium hydroxide is then added to the seawater, reacting with dissolved magnesium chloride to yield solid magnesium hydroxide and aqueous calcium chloride. The solid magnesium hydroxide is added to a hydrochloric acid solution, producing dissolved magnesium chloride and liquid water. Finally, the magnesium chloride is melted and electrolyzed to yield liquid magnesium metal and diatomic chlorine gas.
