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.
Formula of magnesium ribbon?
Science Sucks!!!!!!!! i know and im Liz i have to do a project due 2morrow and i havent even started
What happens when magnesium ribbon is burnt in air?
Magnesium is an extremely reactive metal. When stored, it reacts with oxygen to form a layer of magnesium oxide on its surface. This layer of magnesium oxide is quite stable and prevents further reaction of magnesium with oxygen. The magnesium ribbon is cleaned by sand paper for removing this layer so that the underlying metal can be exposed to air.
Whats an advantage for using powdered magnesium for flash photography instead of magnesium ribbon?
The powder burns much faster than the ribbon, providing a quick bright flash. The ribbon would burn more slowly, providing a longer lasting light but not as bright.See the Related Question for why a powdered substance will generally react faster.
What compound is made when magnesium is burnt?
Magnesium oxide, MgO, is the main product but there will also be traces of magnesium nitride, Mg3N2. Magnesium is unusual it will burn in pure nitrogen. 2Mg + O2 -->2 MgO 3Mg + N2 --> Mg3N2
What do you see when you burn magnesium ribbon?
it turn white as ash
Why should we not see a magnesium ribbon burn?
Burning magnesium emits ultraviolet light, which can damage your eyes.
What happens when you burn magnesium meatal?
magnesium oxide is formed

Is heat gven out or taken in from the surroundings when the magnesium ribbon burns in oxygen?
It is given out. If it were taken in, magnesium would not continue to burn when heat were removed.
What new substance formed when you burn magnesium?
mageneium oxide
Why does magnesium burn in carbon dioxide?
Magnesium burns in carbon dioxide because, when heated, the oxygen in the carbon dioxide is able to bond with magnesium and produce an oxide. Carbon, or soot is formed as a resulting by-product. 2Mg + CO2 ----> 2MgO + C

Is magnesium silicide dangerous goods?
Magnesium oxide is not a dangerous product! Items that are easy to burn, explode, and strongly corrosive are dangerous goods! ! !
Why Mg ribbon continuous to burn in Co2?
Magnesium is a strong enough reducer to "steal" oxygen from other compounds such as carbon dioxide. magnesium reacts with CO2 to produce magnesium oxide and elemental carbon. 2Mg + CO2 --> 2MgO + C
