What is the common name for MgO?
Magnesium Oxide
Would magnesium oxide make an alkali?
Yes. Magnesium oxide will react with water to form magnesium hydroxide.
What are products in science?
A compound / element created by a chemical reaction. Example: Magnesium + Oxygen -> Magnesium Oxide The Magnesium Oxide would be the Product.
What relationships are there between magnesium and magnesium oxide?
Magnesium oxide is formed when magnesium metal reacts with oxygen. It is an oxide of magnesium. Magnesium is the metal, and magnesium oxide is the resulting compound formed when magnesium reacts with oxygen.
When 24g of magnesium metal is heated in air 40g of magnesium oxide is produced. What mass of magnesium would be needed in order to produce 10g of magnesium oxide?
6g
If you add water to magnesium oxide what would the pH be?
When water is added to magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide is formed. The pH of this solution would be basic, usually around 9-10, due to the presence of hydroxide ions.
What is the formula of of magnesium oxide?
== == MgO That would be Magnesium rust. It makes Magnesium off color and cloudy.
What is the chemical name for heated magnesium?
That would be Magnesium Oxide (since a single element cannot decompose) which decomposes into Magnesium and Oxygen. Magnesium Oxide --> Magnesium + Oxygen or the balanced chem. equation: 2MgO --> 2Mg + 02
Why does the amount of Magnesium Oxide not increase when the amount of magnesium is increased?
When magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, the ratio of magnesium to oxygen is fixed according to the chemical equation (2Mg + O2 -> 2MgO). This means that the amount of magnesium oxide that can be formed is limited by the amount of oxygen available, not by the amount of magnesium present. So, increasing the amount of magnesium does not lead to a corresponding increase in magnesium oxide produced.
How would the formula of the oxide be influence if impure magnesium was used?
The formula of the magnesium oxide formed would not change at all if impure magnesium was used, but less of the magnesium oxide would be formed than if the same amount of pure magnesium had been used. Depending on the chemical nature of the impurities, other products might be formed, or the impurity might simply remain as a contaminant of the magnesium oxide.
What is the correct way to write magnesium oxide?
Did you want the formula? If so it is MgO.
What is the word equation for zinc oxide plus magnesium?
Zinc oxide reacts with metallic magnesium to produce magnesium oxide and metallic zinc.
