This a long process...
first you write down the equation,in this case:
2NaCl (aq) + Mg(OH)2 (s) ———> MgCl2 (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) .
next you break them up into ions :
(only break up the aqueous solutions)
(2Na+) + (2Cl-) + Mg(OH)2 {leave it together} ———> (Mg2+) + (2Cl-) + (2Na+) + (2OH-).
then look at both sides of equation and cancel the ions that appear twice .
In this case: Cl and Na.
now the remaining is your final net atomic equation:
Mg(OH)2———-> Mg2 + 2OH.
