yes, the burning strip of Magnesium in nitrogen atmosphere produces solid Magnesium nitride, 3Mg + N2 = Mg3N2
Is burning a strip of magnesium ribbon a chemical or physical change?
This is a chemical change. The reaction is: Mg + O ---> MgO
When was magnesium oxide found?
Magnesium oxide is a white, powder-like solid which has no odor. It can be easily produced burning a magnesium strip in air. It is not totally pure as it contains some magnesium nitride also.
Why does the magnesium strip light up when placed in hot fire?
It is burning -- oxidizing -- just like a piece ofwood placed in a hot fire.
What is the coating on a magnesium strip?
Magnesium oxide. It's produced by magnesium reacting with oxygen.
Why is the magnesium strip polished before weighing?
To remove the oxide layer (magnesium oxide) on it
How and why does the mass of a magnesium strip change when it is heated strongly in air?
When a magnesium strip is heated strongly in air, it undergoes a chemical reaction called oxidation. Magnesium reacts with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide. The mass of the strip increases because magnesium combines with oxygen atoms from the air to form a heavier compound (magnesium oxide).
