What compounds are formed when magnesium reacts with oxygen?

elements and compounds

Zinc Oxide. Whenever a metal reacts with oxygen, it bonds them both together, like magnesium+oxygen=magnesium oxide

It's "magnesium oxide" (answers.com)

magnesium reacts with oxygen and gives rise to magnesium oxide

A white powdery substance is formed.It is Magnesium oxide which is formed by the reaction of magnesium with oxygen.

Magnesium is the metal which reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.

If the metal is heated it forms Molten Magnesium, but if it is burnt it reacts with oxygen to form Magnesium Oxide (MgO)

Any metal that reacts with oxygen will produce a metal oxide. For example, magnesium reacts with oxygen to produce magnesium oxide, and zinc reacts with oxygen to produce zinc oxide. It is helpful to know the general word equation: metal + oxygen -> metal oxide

Magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.

2Mg + O2 --> MgO Oxygen oxidizes the Mg to Mg2+, which in turn reacts with oxygen to form MgO

Magnesium reacts with oxygen to create magnesium oxide. Magnesium(Mg)+Oxygen(O2)--------> magnesium oxide(MgO) 2Mg+O2 ------>2 MgO

No, it is formed by an ionic bond between one magnesium and one oxygen atom, made by burning magnesium ribbon which oxidizes, resulting in a powder.

Hydrogen gas is formed when magnesium reacts with dilute sulphuric acid.

Magnesium on heating reacts with oxygen and halogens but it also reacts with nitrogen.

Magnesium reacts violently with oxygen to make Magnesium Oxide

Magnesium reacts with oxygen to produce magnesium oxide. 2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO

Magnesium Oxide is a compound which is formed when Oxygen from the air reacts with Magnesium to form a White powder known as Magnesium oxide ~ Hope this helped

magnesium hydroxide is formed! MgOH is formed

When magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid, hydrogen bubbles are produced and magnesium chloride is formed.

No the magnesium reacts with the oxygen in the water to from magnesium oxide Mg + H2O= MgO + H2

The magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.

The magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.

Magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.

Oxygen the word symbol is calcium + oxygen > calcium oxide same with magnesium + oxygen > magnesium oxide

Two are lost by magnesium (which are in turn gained by the oxygen).
