Magnesium oxide reacts with dilute nitric acid to form magnesium nitrate and water.
The equation for the reaction is:
MgO(s)+2HNO3(aq)→Mg(NO3)2(aq)+H2O(l) \text{MgO}(\text{s}) + 2\text{HNO}_3(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{Mg(NO}_3)_2(\text{aq}) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(\text{l}) MgO(s)+2HNO3(aq)→Mg(NO3)2(aq)+H2O(l)Which of the following correctly identifies the physical state of each substance in the chemical equation?
