Magnesium chloride formula milk. Because magnesium is a mobile nutrient, magnesium chloride can be effectively used as a substitute for magnesium sulfate (Epsom salt) to help correct magnesium deficiency in plants via foliar feeding. The recommended dose of magnesium chloride is smaller than the recommended dose of magnesium sulfate (20 g/l). This is due primarily to the chlorine present in magnesium chloride, which can easily reach toxic levels if over-applied or applied too often. It has been found that higher concentrations of magnesium in tomato and some pepper plants can make them more susceptible to disease caused by infection of the bacterium
Magnesium iron hexahydride Magnesium iron hexahydride Magnesium iron hexahydride is an inorganic compound with the formula MgFeH. It is a green diamagnetic solid that is stable in dry air. The material is prepared by heating a mixture of powdered magnesium and iron under high pressures of hydrogen: The compound is isomorphous with KPtCl, i.e., their connectivities and structures are the same. The [FeH] centre adopts octahedral molecular geometry with Fe-H distances of 1.56 Å. The Mg centres are bound to the faces of the octahedron, with Mg-H distances of 2.38 Å. Several related compounds are known including salts of [RuH], [OsH], and [PtH]
