How do you get magnesium oxide?
Burn a piece of magnesium (just did an assessment on that)
Does magnesium burn in the absence of oxygen?
Magnesium can burn in the absence of elemental oxygen, yes. This is because it is such a strong reducing agent that it can essentially steal oxygen from substances such as water and carbon dioxide.
How could you prove that magnesium is a more reactive metal than zinc or iron?
Magnesium react with water and burn easily in air.
If you burn magnesium what does it turn in to?
magnesium oxide
Is this equation correct Magnesium Hydroxide heat up will give Magnesium Phosphate plus water?
No - phosphorous can not just appear.Heating magnesium hydroxide will give magnesium oxide and water.
What happens when you burn magnesium meatal?
magnesium oxide is formed
Will magnesium burn with a brilliant white light if heated above 100 degrees?
Yes, magnesium burn in air.
What is the gas that reacts with calcium and magnesium when they burn?
Hydrogen gas is released when calcium and water react.
How easily does magnesium sulfate burn?
Magnesium sulfate is not flammable; by heating it is thermally decomposed.
What type of burn is caused by napalm thermite or magnesium?
Thermal Burn
Does nitrogen stop magnesium from burning?
No, magnesium can continue tor burn in nitrogen to form magnesium nitride, Mg3N2
Why is magnesium sulfate used in drinking water?
Magnesium sulfate is usually just in the ground water to begin with. Too much magnesium sulfate can have dehydration and laxative effects. Several filtration methods can remove magnesium sulfate and other dissolved substances from ground water. That's not to say it being in the water is a bad thing, magnesium is a needed mineral and drinking water that has been filtered can lead to a magnesium deficiency.
