Aqueous magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas are produced when solid magnesium reacts with aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCl). What is the equation for this reaction? Do not worry about balancing this equation.
a. Mg(s) + HCl(aq) → MgCl(aq) + H(g)
b. MgCl(aq) + H(g) → Mg(s) + HCl(aq)
c. Mg(s) + HCl(aq) → MgCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
d. MgCl₂(aq) + H₂(g) → Mg(s) + HCl(aq)
e. Mg(s) + HCl(aq) + H₂(g) → MgCl(aq)
