Your equations are messed up as you have the wrong formulas. Because bismuth and magnesium ions are bivalent, they donate 2 electrons to the chlorides, which can only ACCEPT one - so;
Bismuth Chloride=BiCl2
Magnesium Chloride=MgCl2
-
oh wait, nevermind, i was thinking of AlO.
-
doesn't Al make insoluble AlCl? You would have it mixed into the bismuth precipitate. Mg would make soluble MgCl that can be washed out.
-
@jamjarchemistry Use Al no need to waste Mg on that.
