First, write the unbalanced equation:
Mg (OH)_2 + H Cl = Mg Cl_2 + H_2 O.
It is simple to balance it:
Mg (OH)_2 + 2H Cl = Mg Cl_2 + 2H_2 O
(give the coefficient 2 to H Cl to balance 2 Cl at the right side, then give the coefficient 2 to H_2 O to balance O, and we are done).
Thus one mole of Mg (OH)_2 requires two moles of H Cl to be neutralized.
Next, there are 0.05 (mol)/L * 50*10^(-3) L = 2.5*10^-3 mol of H Cl in H Cl solution, therefore there are twice less moles of Mg (OH)_2, 1.25*10^-3 mol. This gives the molarity (molar concentration) of Mg (OH)_2 to be equal to (1.25*10^-3 mol)/(345 mL) = (1.25 mol)/(345 L) approx 0.0036 M. This is the answer.

If it takes 50 mL of 0.05M HCL to neutralize 345 mL of Mg(OH)2 solution, what is the concentration of the Mg(OH)2 solution?
