Solution

$M g + 2 H C l \to M g C l_{2} + H_{2}$
When Magnesium ( $M g$ ) reacts with dilute Hydrochloric acid ( $H C l$ ) it gives out a salt called Magnesium Chloride ( $M g C l_{2}$ ) and Hydrogen gas ( $H_{2}$ ) is liberated.
This reaction is a redox reaction.
$M g + 2 H C l \to M g C l_{2} + H_{2}$ is the balanced equation for the reaction where Magnesium reacts with dilute Hydrochloric acid.
