Magnesium sulfite is the magnesium salt of sulfurous acid with the formula MgSO3. Its most common hydrated form has 6 water molecules making it a hexahydrate, MgSO3·6H2O. When heated above 40 °C (104 °F), it is dehydrated to magnesium sulfite trihydrate, or MgSO3·3H2O.[1] The anhydrous form is hygroscopic, meaning that it readily absorbs water from the air.
