Dissolve magnesium mass with nitric acid, then evaporate/boil the liquid away
magnesium nitrate
Yes, magnesium reacts with copper nitrate to form magnesium nitrate and copper. The reaction involves the displacement of copper from the copper nitrate solution by magnesium.
Mg(NO3)2 is called magnesium nitrate. You do not use the prefix di for the nitrate since this is an ionic compound, and it can only be (NO3)2 as nitrate has a -1 charge and Mg has a +2 charge.
You don't: Magnesium nitrate is already neutral!
There is no compound with the formula Mg3NO2. There is one with the formula Mg3N2, which is magnesium nitride. Magnesium nitride is an inorganic yellow-green powder.
When magnesium is mixed with copper nitrate, a single displacement reaction occurs. The magnesium will displace the copper in the copper nitrate, forming magnesium nitrate and copper metal. This reaction is also a redox reaction as magnesium is oxidized and copper is reduced.
Silver nitrate breaks down more easily than magnesium nitrate. When exposed to light, silver nitrate decomposes into silver and nitrogen oxides. Magnesium nitrate, on the other hand, requires higher temperatures to decompose into magnesium oxide and nitrogen dioxide.
There are 0.13 moles in 20 grams of magnesium nitrate.
No Reaction
No, as magnesium is more reactive, and would 'keep' the nitrate.
Magnesium Oxide + Nitric Acid -----> Magnesium Nitrate + Water. Hope this helps.
The chemical formula of magnesium nitrate is Mg(NO3)2.
