If you burn magnesium what does it turn in to?
magnesium oxide
What happens when you burn magnesium meatal?
magnesium oxide is formed
What is a scenario for increasing temperature influence a chemical change?
At room temperature, magnesium and oxygen react very slowly. However, when you burn the magnesium, it will rapidly combine with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide, MgO.
What is the name of the white powder that is left when you burn magnesium?
the white powder is magnesium oxide. Magnesium burns in air with a dazzling white light to produce magnesium oxide. the equation is- 2Mg + O2 = 2MgO
Does magnesium react?
Magnesium reacts with steam faster than cold water because magnesium needs to burn to get magnesium oxide and to get magnesium oxide there has to be heat and since steam is already heated it doesn't need much time, but the cold water needs time to heat first to react.
If you burn magnesium what does it turn in to?
magnesium oxide
What is the product formed when magnesium ribbon is burn?
Magnesium oxide and carbon ii oxide.
How do you get magnesium oxide?
Burn a piece of magnesium (just did an assessment on that)
What happens when you burn magnesium meatal?
magnesium oxide is formed

What new substance formed when you burn magnesium?
mageneium oxide
What white powder do you get when you burn magnesium?
magnesium oxide 2 Mg + O2 = 2 MgO
What happens to the magnesium when it forms magnesium oxide?
This is an oxidation reaction; magnesium burn in oxygen.
What theproducts form when burning magnesium?
2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO When you burn something it reacts with O2, and Magnesium makes Magnesium oxide.
Magnesium carbonate when heated?
if mixed with air it explodes with a bus off light i did it in science last week 31/10/08 stefan rabicano
Why is the burning of magnesium ribbon a synthesis reaction?
When you burn magnesium, you are taking two elements, magnesium and oxygen, and combining them to form a compound, magnesium oxide. That is synthesis.
