Probably because it costs a ton? poop
Before copper and plastic pipes became available people used to use lead, iron or steel to make water pipes. Nowadays main water supply pipes for fresh water coming into buildings are made of plastic and pipes within buildings - delivering water to sinks, baths, showers and toilets - are made either of copper or plastic. Within buildings, pipes which take away waste water - which are also called drainage pipes - are usually made of plastic. Outside buildings, modern drainage pipes are mostly made of plastic but older drain pipes may be made of glazed earthenware (which is baked clay) or iron.
Magnesium oxide will react with water to form Magnesium Hydroxide. Magnesium Hydroxide will not reat further with water
No. Magnesium oxide is not soluble in water. On contact with water it will form magnesium hydroxide.
The products that are formed will be magnesium salt, water and carbon dioxide. Exactly what salt is made depends the acid used. Hydrochloric acid produces magnesium chloride; sulphuric acid produces magnesium sulphate; nitric acid produces magnesium nitrate.
because all acid has some kind of reaction with magnesium.
Zinc and magnesium are highly reactive and so will corrode very easily, especially when in contact with water. Magnesium is an especially poor choice for pipes as it will react with water to produce flammable hydrogen gas.

Hot water pipes are made of different material so that they can keep the water flowing through them at a hotter temperature. Hot water pipes are usually made of copper or some other heat conductive material, and cold pipes are usually made of plastic or other non conductive material.

Water moves underground through pipes and man made tunnels. If there are no pipes or tunnels, water finds little holes or crevices to move through.
Stop them goin rusty
Black pipes are made of iron, which means that they will easily rust. Additionally, the iron will leach into the water, contributing to its mineral content and hardness.
water pipes are almost always made of a polymer PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride)... it is a linear polymer with 1-chloro ethene as its repeating unit...
