What kind of chemicals melt ice?
These chemicals are called deicing substances: chlorides of sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium.
Is magnesium a liquid?
Magnesium is a solid metal at room temperature; it does have a liquid phase (pretty much everything does, at the right combination of temperature and pressure) but in order to obtain liquid magnesium you would have to heat it in the absence of oxygen (or water) since it will otherwise burn up rather than melt, when it is heated.
What is the first minerals to form when magma cools that are rich in iron calcium and magnesium?
Olivine is the first mineral to crystallize as the mineral first to crystallize is the last to melt.
How could magnesium be obtained from magnesium oxide?
Either melt the magnesium and run a fairly strong current through it, or use a very strong reducing agent (alkali metal) with the magnesium oxide in some form of solution (but not in water, obviously). Alkali metals cannot be used to reduce magnesium oxide. Their oxides can be easily reduced to metals by magnesium. M2O + Mg -> MgO + 2M (Li-Cs).
Which has a higher melting temperature magnesium rich pyroxene or iron rich pyroxene?
most likely Mg rich pyroxenen since Fe starts melting earlier from a melt and also mantle rocks that are highly melt depleted contain very high mg rich pyroxenes
What would happen if you toast magnesium?
You would melt your toaster. Magnesium burns with a white flame when heated in air.
What salt does Indiana use to melt the ice on roads?
magnesium chloride
Is Magnesium melting point above room temperature?
Magnesium sulfate doesn't melt; at high temperature MgSO4 is thermally decomposed.
What is ice melt made of?
It is made of Calcium,Sodium,Magnesium and Potassium pellets.
Is magnesium sulphate's melting point above room temperature?
Magnesium sulfate doesn't melt; at high temperature MgSO4 is thermally decomposed.
What is a property of sodium oxide?
Takes temperatures of over 2,800 degrees to melt magnesium oxide.
Why does magnesium metal melt at higher temperature than sodium metal?
Due to one unit more nuclear charge and two binding electrons for Magnesium atom.
CAN YOU melt metal with a magnifying glass?
Yes, all substances have a melting point. However, special procedures may need to be followed to melt magnesium as it is a flammable substance.
What kind of chemicals melt ice?
These chemicals are called deicing substances: chlorides of sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium.
If you melt magnesium metal is it a chemical change?
Yes, the combustion of magnesium, or anything else for that matter, represents a chemical change. For magnesium, the combustion reaction results in the loss of magnesium and the production of magnesium oxide. Clearly a chemical change.
Can you use Magnesium sulfate to melt snow?
No. Although technically a "salt", Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt in it's Heptahydrate form) will not melt snow or ice.
What is the solubility of magnesium oxide?
the solubility is 0.0086 g/100ml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_oxide
