#1 Effervescence (bubbles) of hydrogen gas.
#2 Possible white precipitate, depending on the acid used. If sulphuric acid is used then a white PPT of magnesium sulphate will occur, Not so with hydrochloric acid or nitric scid.

What happens to the magnesium atoms when you mix it with dilute hydrochloric acid?
Let's see. Mg + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + H2 You produce a salt, magnesium chloride, and hydrogen gas ( should see the hydrogen gas effusing ) from this reaction.
What will hppen if you put a piece of magnesium into dilute nitric acid?
Im not sure about very dilute acid and strong magnesium but; magnesium and dilute nitric acid formed alot of gas, the color changed to a browney orange and the temperature increased significantly. I was told (by my science teacher) that when writing the chemical equation you didnt have to include water so; magnesium + nitric acid-------> magnesium nitrate + hydrogen Hope this helps. :)
What do you get for a product when you mix magnesium metal and hydrochloric acid?
Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) ----> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)When the magnesium starts to react with the hydrochloric acid, you will see bubbles form in the solution. After the reaction has finished, it will just look like a beaker of water.
Do some metals react with acid to make oxygen?
yes ,if you add dilute sulphuric acid with a magnesium ribbon in a boiling test tube you will see lots of bubbles appear and if you put your thumb over the opening of the test tube and put a burning split over it then remove thumb you will hear a squeaky pop!
What happens when magnesium oxide is put in hydrochloric acid?
Let's see! MgO + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + H2O You get a salt, magnesium chloride, and water.

What would you see if a piece of magnesium ribbon reacts with dilute hydrocholric acid?
You would see bubbles (effervescence) of Hydrogen gas being given off as the reaction happens.Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid ------> Magnesium Chloride + HydrogenMetal + acid ------> Metal Salt + Hydrogen
When you mix magnesium with dilute citric acid what test could you use to see if hydrogen is given off?
1) Put a burning splint near the mouth of a test tube which you think contains hydrogen. If you hear a pop when you touch it with the splint then there is hydrogen.

What is the difference in mixing magnesium oxide with sulfuric acid than mixing magnesium carbonate with sulfuric acid?
Magnesium Oxide and Magnesium Carbonate are very different, Magnesium Oxide is Magnesium fused with Oxygen whereas Magnesium Carbonate is Magnesium fused with Carbon and Oxygen. The suffix "ate" means that an oxygen atom is involved. This added element (carbon) means that there will be a slight change in product. The chemical formula for Magnesium carbonate is MgCO3 whereas Magnesium oxide is MgO. See how there are two extra oxygens and one extra carbon? Add them together and you have CO2 and this is your difference. The difference in mixing magnesium oxide with sulfuric acid rather than mixing magnesium carbonate with sulfuric acid is that sulfuric acid and Magnesium carbonate create CO2 whereas Magnesium Oxide and sulfuric acid do not.

Why you can not see any bubble near the electrodes?
if we do not add few drops of dilute sulfuric acid to the water we can not see any bubble in it.

Describe the how would you prepare a solutionn of magnesium chloride solution starting with dilute hydrochloric acid include in your answer what would you see and how would you make sure that all the?
The reaction is:Mg + 2 HCl = MgCl2 + H2(g)You will see a release of hydrogen if a lighted match is placed near the test tube - you hear a click.

What do you see when zinc is put into dilute hydrochloric acid?
Zn + 2HCl --> ZnCl2 + H2What you can see is the hydrogen gas effusing out of the solution in many bubbles.
