    Explications :

    1) Pour 50 cm3 dilute hydrochloric acid into a test tube.

    2) Add a small amount of magnesium ribbon to the

    acid.

    Fizzing is seen and the magnesium disappears.

    3) Continue adding acid and stir with a spatula until

    some magnesium remains.

    4) There is now a residue of

    magnesium.

    5) Pour off the magnesium chloride solution

    into an evaporating basin.

    6) Heat the evaporating basin

    until all the water has evaporated. 7)

    Leave until crystals

    form.

    7) Then pat the crystals dry with writing paper.
