Why is the burning of magnesium ribbon a synthesis reaction?
When you burn magnesium, you are taking two elements, magnesium and oxygen, and combining them to form a compound, magnesium oxide. That is synthesis.
In the reaction between magnesium and oxygen the mass of magnesium and oxygen was 2.5 grams how much magnesium oxide was formed?
340 grams
What are the products of the reaction between magnesium and water?
The product is magnesium oxide (MgO) when magnesium reacts with oxygen.2Mg(s) + O2(g) --> 2MgO(s)magnesium + oxygen --> magnesium oxide
What is the chemical reaction between magnesium and oxygen called?
Oxidation. At high temperature magnesium ignites - and that is called combustion.
What type of chemical reaction takes place when magnesium wire is heated?
When magnesium metal wire is heated in open air, an oxidation-reduction reaction takes place between the magnesium and the oxygen in the air. The magnesium is oxidized as the oxygen is reduced. The product of this reaction is magnesium oxide, MgO. Note that this reaction can also be deemed a combustion reaction, which is a specific type of redox reaction which involves the production of heat and sometimes light.

When magnesium burns in air it mixes with oxygen gas in a synthesis reaction. This forms?
The product of the magnesium burning is magnesium oxide (MgO).
How can you justify that a reaction between magnesium and oxygen is a redox reactionwhile the reaction shows only addition of oxygen?
Magnesium loss electrons and oxygen gain electrons.
In the reaction between magnesium and oxygen the mass of magnesium and oxygen was 2.5 grams how much magnesium oxide was formed?
340 grams
How can you justify that a reaction between magnesium and oxygen is a redox reaction whioe the reaction shows only addition of oxygen?
In any redox reaction, at least one reactant is reduced and at least one reactant is oxidized. In the reaction between magnesium and oxygen, the magnesium atoms are oxidized because they lose electrons and the oxygen atoms are reduced because they gain electrons. Furthermore, the premise of the question is erroneous: The reaction does not as alleged show only addition of oxygen; instead it shows combination of magnesium and oxygen to form a new chemical entity, the compound magnesium oxide.
What are the products of the reaction between magnesium and water?
The product is magnesium oxide (MgO) when magnesium reacts with oxygen.2Mg(s) + O2(g) --> 2MgO(s)magnesium + oxygen --> magnesium oxide
The chemical formula of the product formed from the reaction between Magnesium and Oxygen is?
MgO
What is the chemical reaction between magnesium and oxygen called?
Oxidation. At high temperature magnesium ignites - and that is called combustion.
Is water release in dehydration synthesis?
yes cause of reaction between oxygen and hydrogen
When magnesium combines with oxygen what does the reaction involve?
Magnesium reacts violently with oxygen to make Magnesium Oxide

The product of this reaction is magnesium oxide, MgO. Note that this reaction can also be deemed a combustion reaction, which is a specific type of redox reaction which involves the production of heat and sometimes light.
How can you justify that a reaction between magnesium and oxygen is a redox reaction w hile the reaction shows only addition of oxygen 2mg plus O 2mgo?
Oxidation is a redox reaction.
