Mg(HCO3)2 is a white powder at room temperature. It is soluble in water. If the concentration of Mg(HCO3)2 or Ca(HCO3)2 is too high, the water is called hard water.
Example Reactions:
• Mg(HCO3)2 = MgO + 2CO2 + H2O
• MgCO3 + H2O + CO2 = Mg(HCO3)2
• MgCO3 + H2CO3 = Mg(HCO3)2
• Mg(HCO3)2 + 2HCl = MgCl2 + 2H2O + 2CO2
• Mg(HCO3)2 + 2Ca(OH)2 = 2CaCO3↓ + Mg(OH)2↓ + 2H2O
• Ca(OH)2 + Mg(HCO3)2 = Mg(OH)2↓ + Ca(HCO3)2
• Mg(HCO3)2 + H2SO4 = MgSO4 + 2H2O + 2CO2
• Mg(HCO3)2 + Cs2CO3 = MgCO3↓ + 2CsHCO3
• 2NaHCO3 + MgHPO4 = Na2HPO4 + Mg(HCO3)2
• 2HNO3 + Mg(HCO3)2 = Mg(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2CO2
