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. :)
2HNO3(aq) + Mg(C2H3O2)2(aq) --> Mg(NO3)2(aq) + 2HC2H3O2(aq)
At first you would think this reaction would not occur, however if you complete the Total Ionic and Net Ionic equations for this reaction, you'll see the driving force for this reaction is transfer of proton.
magnesium reacts with dilute nitric acid to give magnesium nitrate and hydrogen gas.
Acid plus metal gives salt plus hydrogen gas:
2HNO3 + Mg(s) --> Mg(NO3)2 + H2,(g)
The reaction forms magnesium nitrate and hydrogen gas
Mg + 2HNO3 --> Mg(NO3)2 + H2

That a reaction has occurred between the magnesium & hydrochloric acid: Mg(s) + HCL(aq) --> MgCl(aq) + H2(g)
magnesium + oxygen gas ----D magnesium oxide
Any reaction occur.
Magnesium oxide (MgO) is formed. When a piece of magnesium ribbon is burnt it reacts with oxygen in air according to the chemical equation: 2Mg(s) + O2(g) → 2MgO(s) The magnesium burns in a bright white light and the resulting magnesium oxide is in the form of a white powder.

*when putting a piece of magnesium into dilute hydrocloric acid . *then hydrogen gas bubbles off. *this shows that magnesium react quickly in acid.
That a reaction has occurred between the magnesium & hydrochloric acid: Mg(s) + HCL(aq) --> MgCl(aq) + H2(g)
Burn a piece of magnesium (just did an assessment on that)
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
According to the chemist I spoke to at Flinn supply company, a magnesium turning is a small, thin, curled piece of magnesium, like you would get if you were shaving small strips of wood off of a bigger piece.
it become ductile
magnesium + oxygen gas ----D magnesium oxide
It will react slowly to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
Any reaction occur.
Burning of magnesium (or anything else) requires continuing combination with oxygen. If a burning piece of magnesium is transferred to an atmosphere of nitrogen, no additional magnesium can react with oxygen because none is available for reaction.
Milk of magnesia is an aqueous suspension of magnesium hydroxide.
