If it actually reacts!

Magnesium Carbonate [Mg(CO3)] would be the obvious answer.
But "christoph... N" brings up the question as to whether or not the reaction will actually take place.
In order to determine this, one needs to find the change in the Gibbs Free Energy. If the change in free energy is negative, the reaction is spontaneous (will proceed on its own) at the given temperature. I looked up the Standard Gibbs Free Energy of formation values of these substances, and yes, the reaction is spontaneous, there is a negative change in the free energy.

Where in the hell has Fatima B created a hydrogen atom from??
Under the right conditions magnesium carbonate would be produced - check wikipedia for details.

mgo + co2------------->mgo2+h20
when an acid and a base react, it gives off salt and water
if that is a base
nooooooo!!!!!!!!!
