The mass of Earth's Lithosphere is around 1.365 x 10^23 kg, or
136 500 000 000 000 000 000 000 kg.
Of this, around 2.09% is magnesium, and therefore 2.85285 x 10^21 kg is magnesium, or
2 852 850 000 000 000 000 000 kg.
There are 3 stable isotopes of magnesium. Magnesium- 24,25 and 26.

- mg is the symbol of milligram; 1 mg = 0,001 gram.- Mg is the chemical symbol of magnesium; all three natural isotopes of magnesium are stable.
Magnesium is an atom; but as an atom magnesium has 3 stable isotopes and ca. 18 artificial isotopes. And in solutions magnesium exist as the cation Mg2+. Therefore magnesium is atom, has isotopes and also can be ion.
This is about magnesium element. Mg atom contains 12 protons.
Number of neutrons = Atomic weight - Atomic number (number of prtons) The atomic number of magnesium is 12; the standard atomic weight is circa 24,3. But magnesium has many isotopes (three are natural) and the number of neutrons is variable in the isotopes - from 7 to 28. The most common natural isotope, 24Mg, has 12 neutrons.
Silicon is not converted to magnesium in earth; some artificial isotopes of silicon decay to magnesium isotopes.

Mg stands for Magnesium. It is placed in group-2.
Mg for magnesium
The chemical formula for magnesium is = Mg(OH)2
Magnesium has approx. 20 isotopes, of natural or artificial origin; see the list below.
one Mg+2
The correct chemical symbol of magnesium is Mg.
Mg which stands for Magnesium is the element to begin with, not a compound.
