When burning magnesium the light shines much brighter... so much to the point where it can blind your eyes if you look directly at it while burning... on the other hand methane can be observed while being lit and it wont mess up your sight in other words it is NOT nearly as bright!

Is magnesium burning a physical change?
This is a chemical change, like any other burning reaction: magnesium is turned into magnesium oxide by burning reaction with oxygen (from air). 2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO
Which gas makes burning magnesium go out immediatley?
The diagram shows four gas-jars. Each contains a different gas. Burning magnesium is put into each jar. air,exhailed air, nitrogen, oxagen
How do you oxidize methane?
By burning it (reacting it with Oxygen)
When magnesium is burning in the presence of oxygen what are some evidence that a chemical change is occurring?
It shows the change of when the magnesium is burning in the presence of oxygen.
Why does magnesium go out immedely in nitrogen?
Burning of magnesium (or anything else) requires continuing combination with oxygen. If a burning piece of magnesium is transferred to an atmosphere of nitrogen, no additional magnesium can react with oxygen because none is available for reaction.
Is burning methane a physical or chemical change?
Burning methane is a chemical change, as is burning anything as you are changing one set of substance into a completely different set.
Name the compound involved in burning magnesium?
After burning of magnesium MgO (magnesium oxide) is obtained.
What is burning methane?
If you mean is burning methane comparatively better than releasing it into the atmosphere, then yes it is. Methane is a greenhouse gas, twenty-one times more powerful than carbon dioxide. If methane is released into the atmosphere it works as a greenhouse gas. If it is burnt, it released carbon dioxide instead. Carbon dioxide is also a greenhouse gas, but it is not as powerful as methane. So burning methane is good for the environment.
How can you reduce the impact of burning methane on global warming?
We can stop burning methane. Actually burning methane is better than letting it escape into the atmosphere. Methane, when burnt, emits carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas, but methane, when released into the air, is twenty-one times more dangerous.
Is burning a magnesium ribbon a physical change?
No. Burning magnesium, or burning anything for that matter, is a chemical change. The magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, and to some degree reacts with nitrogen to form magnesium nitride.

What does magnesium ribbon leave after burning?
MgO, Magnesium oxide.
What does methyl magnesium iodide evolve when it react with water?
Methane
What product is formed on burning magnesium ribbon?
The product of the magnesium burning is magnesium oxide (MgO).
How do you make fire burn in different colors?
By burning different substances e.g copper burns green and magnesium burns white.
