The metal which reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide?
elements and compounds
Can mixtures be made of elements and compounds?
Yes look at air it has oxygen and nitrogen(elements) and carbon dioxide(compound)
Is oxygen and magnesium and ionic compound?
They are NOT, Mg (metal) and O2 (bi-atomic gas) are elements and not compounds,BUTMagnesium oxide ( Mg=O ) is an ionic compound
What are the Compounds?
salt or water
Which of these are non metallic elements calcium copper oxide magnesium nitrogen iron oxygen and sodium chloride?
Nitrogen and oxygen are nonmetals.Copper oxide and sodium chloride are compounds, not elements.
What are the 2 most abundant elements found in the mantle?
These elements are oxygen and magnesium.
Indentify the elements compounds or mixtures?
Elements consist of only one kind of atom (i.e. carbon or Phosphorus). Compounds are made of two or more different elements that are chemically bound together (i.e. carbon + oxygen = carbon dioxide, a compound). Mixtures are similar to compounds, but they are not chemically bound together and can be physically separated or filtered (i.e. sand and water).
Is a molecule atoms linked together?
Yes - and can be elements as O2 - Oxygen gas or mixtures of atoms to form compounds like CH4- Methane
How are elements compounds and mixtures differ?
i can only answer the compounds and elements, because im not quite sure on the mixtures! Elements and compounds are alike because they are both pure substances but elements consist of only one atom i.e. one oxygen atom, one carbon atom. Compounds have two types of atoms like CO2 for example it has a carbon atom and two oxygen atoms Here is an equation Carbon plus oxygen equals carbon dioxide i hope this has helped a bit for you!! slight mistake sorry thats why it is CO2. lol he's right!!
What compounds are formed when magnesium reacts with oxygen?
Magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide (MgO).
What are the elements of magnesium hydroxide?
magnesium,hydrogen&oxygen
What are some non examples of compounds?
Gold, Silver, Oxygen, and Hydrogen are not compounds because they are all elements.Sources- Science book. ^_^P.S- This better have helped!
