When burning magnesium ribbon is introduced into a jar of nitrogen gas?

Magnesium burns in the presence of sulfur dioxide because, the oxygen in the sulfur dioxide is able to bond with magnesium and produce an oxide.


Does the oxygen burned from fire turn into carbon dioxide?

Not on its own, and it depends on what is burning. A fire can only produce carbon dioxide if the substance burning with the oxygen contains carbon. And even then, if there are other elements, you will get more substances as products. Carbon will produce carbon dioxide and usually some carbon monoxide as well. Hydrogen will produce water vapor. Sulfur will produce sulfur dioxide. Magnesium will produce magnesium oxide.


Is burning of coal a cause of acid precipitation?

Yes, burning coal releases carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These all combine with rain to form acid rain. Carbon dioxide actually forms a very weak acid rain but the others are more damaging.


What precautions should be taken when burning magnesium?

Magnesium ribbon is not particularly dangerous unless you ignite it. If it does catch fire, it will burn with an intensly bright white light that will burn your retinas if you aren't wearing appropriate eye protection or aren't looking away while it is burning. It is as bad as watching arc welding because of the ultraviolet light emitted. It is good form to wear eye protection in the lab at all times. While you can tear the ribbon with your fingers, it is possible that it could poke you in the eye and scratch your cornea.


What does magnesium carbonate and sulfuric acid equal?

Which gas makes burning magnesium go out?

Nitrogen would extinguish the flame. Unlike most burning fuels, magnesium will continue to burn in carbon dioxide because its flame is hot enough to decompose carbon dioxide to carbon and oxygen.

Can CO be broken down chemically?

Why not, If a burning piece of Magnesium is introduced in carbon dioxide containing jar it breaks the carbon dioxide ,oxygen goes with Magnesiumas oxide and carbon is settled down.
