How do you balance this : Mg(OH)2 + (NH4)2SO4 H2O + MgSO4 + NH3

The product are H2O and NH3, and NH3 is also part of an equilibrium as shown.Hope this helps you understand.JIL HIR-It would unrealistic to balance this equation when there isnt even an equal sign.-You need to give us the products too.-there should be an = somewhere.......

Mg(OH)2(s) is only very slightly soluble in H2O.

Mg(OH)2(aq) + (NH4)2SO4(aq) ---> 2 H2O(l) +MgSO4(aq) + 2 NH3(aq)
NH3(aq) <=> NH3(g)

This is an acid-base reaction between NH4^+, an acid, and OH^-, a base coming from Mg(OH)2. The product are H2O and NH3, and NH3 is also part of an equilibrium as shown.

Hope this helps you understand. JIL HIR

You need to give us the products too.

there should be an = somewhere...
