2mgh20 happens
over a few days magnesium will start to corrode and eventually be covered in rust, after a short amount of time the magnesium relases small bubbles which then slowy corrode it away.
Producing a solution, Mg(OH)2 that is only slightly alkaline, ph~8
if you put magnesium in water the magnesium will by time give effect to the water and the water starts to get not a trasperent colour but a white ish colour
it blows up lol :-)
yes it does from yazoo
Magnesium react with water.
they will ignite ( burst into flames )
Magnesium metal would displace hydrogen from Sulphuric acid and form Magnesium sulphate anh Hydrogen gas would be liberated.
Let's see! MgO + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + H2O You get a salt, magnesium chloride, and water.
Magnesium does react with water at room temperature. It does however not catch fire as such. It is a "slow" reaction and does not self-ignite. It forms Magnesium Oxide and Hydrogen when it reacts with water. Larger (not that large) quantities of Magnesium on fire will not be put out by being submerged in water. Water can however put it out if one sprays it with water at high enough force. This will cool down the metal and it will not longer be able to sustain the fire. It will burn in an atmosphere of pure nitrogen unlike almost any other fires. Easiest way to put out a Magnesium fire is to cover it with sand or salt.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM !@##@$then he says

Sodium is MUCH faster.
anvit
magnesium sulphate
It will stop burning
Magnesium Chloride and water would be formed. MgO + 2HCl ------> MgCl2 +H2O
Magnesium is flammable. It burns very hot and bright and cannot be put out with water or a normal fire extinguisher.
Magnesium metal would displace hydrogen from Sulphuric acid and form Magnesium sulphate anh Hydrogen gas would be liberated.
A vigorous reaction will ensue with a magnesium salt being formed and water and carbon dioxide gas given off.

When you put water near a window it will eventually after a couple of days evaporate.
