This question cannot be addressed as posed...

Explanation:

You add hydrochloric acid to an excess of magnesium hydroxide ... it is likely that magnesium hydroxide as a solid remains AS A solid at the end of the reaction. We need #K_"sp"# for #Mg(OH)_2#. You will have to repropose the question...and please look at the volumes...
