it is a combustion reaction or oxidation snce it happens with oxygen.
This is a chemical change, like any other burning reaction: magnesium is turned into magnesium oxide by burning reaction with oxygen (from air). 2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO
This is a chemical change, like any other burning reaction: magnesium is turned into magnesium oxide by burning reaction with oxygen (from air). 2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO
During burning magnesium is transformed in magnesium oxide - a chemical reaction:2 Mg + O2 = 2 MgO
The product of the magnesium burning is magnesium oxide (MgO).
Magnesium is converted into Magnesium oxide. 2Mg + O2 -----> 2MgO
When you burn magnesium, you are taking two elements, magnesium and oxygen, and combining them to form a compound, magnesium oxide. That is synthesis.
The independent variable in the Magnesium Oxide Lab would be the Mass of the Magnesium Ribbon. This is because the mass of the product, i.e. Magnesium Oxide, depends on how much Magnesium is added.
A white powdery substance is formed.It is Magnesium oxide which is formed by the reaction of magnesium with oxygen.
on burning Magnesium reacts with oxygen and forms magnesium oxide it left as a white powder.
After burning of magnesium MgO (magnesium oxide) is obtained.
The product of the magnesium burning is magnesium oxide (MgO).
This is an oxidation reaction; magnesium burn in oxygen.
