First thing you have to do, is balance the equation, which lucky for you is already balanced. Next, convert the 6 g of Mg given into moles: \[\large 6g~Mg*\frac{1 mol}{24 g~Mg} =0.25~ mol\] The grams of Mg will cancel. Now, convert the moles of Mg to moles of MgSO4. In this case, it is a 1-to-1 ratio. The molecular weight of MgSO4 is 120 mg (from the weights given in the problem). \[\Large 0.25~mol*\frac{120 g~MgSO_4}{1 ~mol} = 30~g~MgSO_4\]
