How could you show that magnesium reacts with acid faster with acid than with pure water and what would you see?

Metallic magnesium will cause rapid evolution of hydrogen gas when contacted with an acid in water solution, but will cause gas evolution much more slowly if at all when in contact with pure water.

What reacts with water to form a gas?
A physical change is when something reacts with water to form a gas. For example, when magnesium reacts with water vapor, it will form hydrogen gas and magnesium hydroxide.
What do you call the white powder that is formed when magnesium reacts with steam?
sulfur which then forms magnesium sulfide
Why does magnesium rust fastest in salt water?
I think cause you know how the magnesium reacts in salt causing it to rust
What are the products of the reaction between magnesium and water?
The product is magnesium oxide (MgO) when magnesium reacts with oxygen.2Mg(s) + O2(g) --> 2MgO(s)magnesium + oxygen --> magnesium oxide
What metal burns with a white flame?
potassium and sodium react very violently with cold water calcium reacts slowly with cold water Magnesium is not affected by water at room temperature or cold water.Magnesium reacts with water vapor only.
How could you show that magnesium reacts faster with acid than with water?
*when putting a piece of magnesium into dilute hydrocloric acid . *then hydrogen gas bubbles off. *this shows that magnesium react quickly in acid.
Magnesium reacts with water?
Magnesium reacts with water to produce magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Mg + 2H2O ---> Mg(OH)2 + H2

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.
What is the result when magnesium oxide reacts with water?
Magnesium Hydroxide forms. MgO + H2O = Mg(OH)2
Why does magnesium rust fastest in salt water?
I think cause you know how the magnesium reacts in salt causing it to rust
Which reaction will happen faster sodium with water or magnesium with water?
Sodium is MUCH faster.
What is a metal that reacts to salt water but does not react to fresh water?
Magnesium. I believe Magnesium does not react to fresh water but salt water is very corrosive and will disolve the metal.
What are the products of the reaction between magnesium and water?
The product is magnesium oxide (MgO) when magnesium reacts with oxygen.2Mg(s) + O2(g) --> 2MgO(s)magnesium + oxygen --> magnesium oxide

How does a tablet neutralize the stomach?
The tablet contains a base that reacts with HCl in the stomach. For example, milk of magnesia contains magnesium oxide (some of which reacts with and dissolves in water to give magnesium hydroxide).
