4. Write the chemical reaction involved in the preparation of the solution.

1. Citric acid + Magnesium Carbonate + water

5C3H4(OH)(COOH)3 + (MgCO3)4.Mg(OH)2 + 5H2O → 4CO2 + 11H2O +
5C3H4(OH)(COOH)(COO)2Mg

2. Citric acid + Potassium bicarbonate

C3H4(OH)(COOH)3 + 3KHCO3 → C3H4(OH) (COOK)3 + 3CO2 + 3H2O
