One of the problems with word problems is figuring out the composition. It's easy, however, if you google it.

Magnesium hydroxide = Mg(OH)2; Aluminum hydroxide = Al(OH)3

Google magnesium hydroxide

Google aluminum hydroxide

You should be able to do the others.

(p.s.: Hydrochloric acid)

this is a bit complicating but here are two:
NaCHO3 + HCl -----► H2O + NaCl + CO2
Mg(OH)2 + 2 HCl --> MgCl2 + 2 H2O
i dont know what they are for
sorry
