upon lighting 1 cup of magnesium powder the combustion of the two would be so strong that you could light yourself on fire. In a controlled environment the magnesium would continue to burn until it has been starved of oxygen. i.e. if you put a lid on it the fire would burn up any oxygen in the container and the magnesium will dissipate.

What will happen if you set baby powder on fire?
Baby powder+fire=more fire
How do you put out an magnesium fire?
To extinguish a magnesium fire, you can use a Class D fire extinguisher specifically designed for metal fires. It is important to never use water on a magnesium fire, as it can react explosively with the metal. Sand or a dry powder extinguishing agent can also be used to smother the fire and deprive it of oxygen.
What is the best way to put out a magnesium fire?
The special powder extinguishers are designed specifically to fight combustible metal fires (class D), such as sodium, lithium, magnesium and aluminum when in the form of swarf or powder. The extinguishers are equipped with a special very low velocity applicator to ensure the fire fighting powder is applied efficiently and effectively to burning metal and prevent burning swarf from spreading. The L2 version contains powder formulated for extinguishing all metal fires including lithium.* Unique lance applicator designed to allow the powder to fall evenly over the fire* Colour coded area for easy identification* Highly effective against metal fires. Which include lithium, sodium, magnesium and aluminum when in the form of powder or swarf* L2 contains powder suitable for fires involving lithium* M28 does not cover lithium fire risks* Unique hose swivel joint for easy directional controlLithium L2 Powder Extinguisher - 9kg capacityM28 Powder Extinguisher - 9kg capacity
When magnesium burns it would be classified as what type of fire?
When magnesium burns, it would be classified as a Class D fire, which involves combustible metals. Magnesium fires can be very intense and require a specialized extinguishing agent, such as a Class D fire extinguisher specifically designed for metal fires.
What type of fire extinguisher to use on combustible fire?
Class D- Dry Chemical for fires in combustible metals such as sodium, magnesium, and potassium.
What would happen to a modern day rifle if the gunpower failes to ignite?
nothing. if the powder fails to fire off you will have to load another round. however, wait a short period of time to make sure you powder does not 'cook' off as you are removing it.....
Why would carbon dioxide not put out a magnesium fire?
This is because once the magnesium starts to burn, the uninhibited chemical reaction dominates the fire's need for oxygen (carbon dioxide usually puts fires out by displacing oxygen). The magnesium will continue to burn until there is nothing left to burn.
If you heat magnesium in a crucible until the magnesium burns A white powder is left behind as the reaction What has the magnesium joined with to make the white powder?

What would happen if fire hit sand?
the fire will go out.
What would happen if you ate fire?
You can't eat fire.
What will happen if fire would not get any oxygen?

What would 1G of custard powder do if it was blown into fire?
If 1g of custard powder was blown into a fire, it would likely burn and produce flames due to the presence of sugar and starch in the powder. The release of energy from the combustion process may result in a brief flare-up, but the small quantity of powder would not cause any significant or long-lasting effects. It is not recommended to intentionally blow any substance into a fire as it can be dangerous.
