If you could pick up and weigh a single atom of magnesium the mass of that atom would most likely weigh what?

Well... one could be the same mass as 12 protons + 12 neutrons + the mass defect.

Why when magnesium ribbon is burnt the ash is heavier?
When Magnesium burns, it is actually combining with oxygen in the air to form a new compound, magnesium oxide. If we were to carefully weigh a piece of magnesium before and after burning it, you would see that its weight increased by about one third. For example, if you start with 100 grams of magnesium, after the burn you would end up with about 130 grams of magnesium oxide. The fact that the magnesium oxide you create by burning is powdery, means that it takes up more space (size or volume) than the solid magnesium did.

When a solid like magnesium burns reacts with oxygen to give an oxide compound and the product is a solid is the easily measurable mass of that product more or less than that of the solid reactant?
The formula for this equation is:2Mg + O2 ---> 2MgOOriginally, the weight you have is just the magnesium only. Although the oxygen is part of the reactants, you are not measuring it. Although, through the chemical reaction, the oxygen becomes bonded to the magnesium. Then you weigh the magnesium withthe added oxygen. So the final weight should be more than the original.2 Mg (s) + O2 (g) → 2 MgO (s)APEX :)
