How would your experimental formula of magnesium chloride “MgClx” have been affected if
your product was not dried completely before weighing it? Would “x” be too high or two low?

I have no idea what you did in the experiment or what "x" is in this problem.
Why don't you write out the experiment you did? We aren't mind readers (yet).
X would be too high because the product would weigh more since it wouldn't be completely dried.
"x" would be too high, because the mass of water that would have been evaporated affected the total mass of MgCl2
