Magnesium bicarbonate

Description:
Magnesium bicarbonate, with the CAS number 2090-64-4, is an inorganic compound that typically exists in aqueous solution rather than as a solid. It is formed when magnesium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide in water, resulting in a compound that can be represented by the formula Mg(HCO₃)₂. This substance is characterized by its solubility in water, where it dissociates into magnesium ions (Mg²⁺) and bicarbonate ions (HCO₃⁻). Magnesium bicarbonate plays a role in various biological and environmental processes, including its potential use in dietary supplements due to magnesium's essential role in human health. It is also involved in buffering systems in natural waters, helping to maintain pH levels. However, it is important to note that magnesium bicarbonate is not commonly encountered in its solid form and is often discussed in the context of its aqueous solutions. Safety data indicates that while it is generally considered non-toxic, handling should still follow standard laboratory safety protocols.
