Is magnesium a solid?
Magnesium is a solid at room temperature. Magnesium's melting point (the point at which it shifts from a solid state to a liquid state) is 1202°F (650 °C). Magnesium's… boiling point (the point at which it shifts from a liquid state to a gaseous state) is 1994°F (1091°C). Yes. Magnesium and alloys of Magnesium is used to make light-weight parts. In chemistry lab, it was common to take a thin metal strip of magnesium and burn it. It burns very brightly. BE VERY CAREFUL. HAVE A FIRE EXTENGUISHER AT THE READY. (MORE)

Is magnesium conductive?
magnesium has a charge of +2, meaning that it is ready to receive two more electrons. however when it says conductive there, metal should be able to give out the electrons but… in this case magnesium would be taking in the electrons. so, magnesium is not conductive. (MORE)
