Nothing. Pardon my frankness but magnesium won't react with sodium hydroxide because sodium hydroxide is a strong alkali. The reactivity series shows that sodium is stronger than magnesium so it won't react.
Magnesium will reduce sodium hydroxide to sodium
2Mg + 2NaOH --> 2MgO + 2Na + H2

What happens when ammonium cloride reacts with sodium hydroxide?
Ammonia and sodium chloride are formed.
What happens when magnesium oxide reacts with sodium hydroxide?
no rection takes place.because two of the compounds are already oxidized n r therefore inert(unreactive).
What happens if sodium methoxide 25 percent in methanol reacts with water?
The sodium methoxide reacts with the water to produce sodium hydroxide an methanol.
What happens in the reaction between sodium hydroxide and magnesium sulphate?
you get a precipitate.
What happens when sulphuric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide?
sulphuric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to form sodium sulphate and water.
What happens when Ferrous sulphate reacts with sodium hydroxide?
Sodium displaces the sulfate to make sodium sulfate; iron displaces the hydroxide to make ferrous hydroxide which becomes brown.
Which gas is given out when sodium hydroxide reacts with a metal?
Hydrogen gas is given out when sodium hydroxide reacts with a metal.
What happens when Acetone reacts with mercuric chloride and sodium hydroxide?
Forms a yellow precipitate
Does sodium chloride form when sodium hydroxide reacts with water?
No Sodium hydroxide solution results -- not sodium chloride.
What salt is made when sodium hydroxide reacts with hydroxide acid?
There is no reaction. "Hydroxide acid" is water, which does not react with sodium hydroxide.
Does ammonia and magnesium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide make sodium hydroxide?
Absolutely not. There is no sodium in that equation whatsoever.
What would be observed and why when you mix magnesium chloride and sodium hydroxide?
Magnesium hydroxide, a precipitate, is formed.
