A lot of things will bond with magnesium, but the most common is oxygen. Most metals oxidize over time--copper turns green, aluminum turns flaky, iron rusts etc.

Also, magnesium has an interesting characteristic of being a metal that can ignite relativly well. After the white flames are done flashing, you end up with ash, otherwise known as magnesium oxide--same as the prior result, but way quicker.

No, because Magnesium is a positive ion. Hydrogen is also a positive ion. The two wouldn't bond very well! XD

Mg^+2; H^+1

Magnesium chloride is ionic and contains Mg2+ and Cl- ions.

There is no hydrogen - why would it have a hydrogen bond?
