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.
In what gas does burning magnesium go out in?
In nitrogen
Does magnesium react with nitrogen gas?
yes, the burning strip of Magnesium in nitrogen atmosphere produces solid Magnesium nitride, 3Mg + N2 = Mg3N2
What happens when you mix nitrogen and magnesium?
magnesium nitride (Mg3N2) is formed upon heating magnesium and nitrogen.
Does magnesium burn better in nitrogen or oxygen?
Magnesium burn in oxygen; burning is an oxidation reaction. Magnesium also reacts with nitrogen at high temperature to form Mg3N2 where the magnesium is oxidised, i.e. loses electrons. When magnesium is burnt in air some nitride is produced which hydrolyses to give a faint smell of ammonia. The enthalpy of formation (heat of reaction) is greater for MgO than for Mg3N2.

In what gas does burning magnesium go out in?
In nitrogen
Why does magnesium go out immedely in nitrogen?
Burning of magnesium (or anything else) requires continuing combination with oxygen. If a burning piece of magnesium is transferred to an atmosphere of nitrogen, no additional magnesium can react with oxygen because none is available for reaction.
Does magnesium react with nitrogen gas?
yes, the burning strip of Magnesium in nitrogen atmosphere produces solid Magnesium nitride, 3Mg + N2 = Mg3N2
Is burning a magnesium ribbon a physical change?
No. Burning magnesium, or burning anything for that matter, is a chemical change. The magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, and to some degree reacts with nitrogen to form magnesium nitride.
What will happen if I drop a strip of burning magnesium into a beaker of water?
It will stop burning
Which gas makes burning magnesium go out immediatley?
The diagram shows four gas-jars. Each contains a different gas. Burning magnesium is put into each jar. air,exhailed air, nitrogen, oxagen
What is the word equation for the reaction of magnesium with nitrogen?
magnesium oxide + nitrogen >>> magnesium nitrite
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.
What happens when you mix nitrogen and magnesium?
magnesium nitride (Mg3N2) is formed upon heating magnesium and nitrogen.

Name the compound involved in burning magnesium?
After burning of magnesium MgO (magnesium oxide) is obtained.
