Is aluminum and magnesium alloy light?
yes
Difference between light magnesium carbonate and heavy magnesium carbonate?
You probably think to anhydrous magnesium carbonate and hydrated magnesium carbonates: MgCO3, MgCO3.2H2O, MgCO3.3H2O, MgCO3.5H2O
What element is sometimes used in flares because it burns with a bright white light?
Magnesium (Mg)
What is the appearance of magnesium when burnt in air?
Magnesium burns with an intensely bright white light and forms magnesium oxide. Magnesium oxide is a white solid, often a powder. Do not look directly at burning magnesium - it may damage your eyes.
Will magnesium burn with a brilliant white light if heated above 100 degrees?
Yes, magnesium burn in air.
What can be hot as thermite?
If you light a magnesium ribbon or something the fire produced can probably reach that heat too.
What kind of simple chemical reaction goes on in a firework?
the white bright light produced in fire works is due to burning of magnesium in the presence of oxygen magnesium+oxygen=magnesiumoxide
Is magnesium a light metal?
yes magnesium is a light metal.
Why should you not look at magnesium ribbon when it burns?
When magnesium burns in air the intense light produced contains consider ultraviolet that can permanently damange the eye's retina. Please see the link.
How does magnesium react with metal?
On burning in air, magnesium produces a brilliant white light. they are highly flammable in their pure form when molten or in powder or ribbon form. Burning or molten magnesium metal reacts violently with water. When working with powdered magnesium, safety glasses with welding eye protection are employed, because the bright white light produced by burning magnesium contains ultraviolet light that can permanently damage the retinas of the eyes.
Is magnesium a heat energy or a light energy?
Ignited magnesium is both heat and light energy.
What happens whilst burning magnesium?
a white spark light comes out of it! and the temperature goes higherAdditional answerAnd the magnesium combines with oxygen and forms magnesium oxide (MgO)
Is magnesium used in light bulbs?
There is no reason to use magnesium in light bulbs. Magnesium readily and easily catches fire and burns -- white hot.
When magnesium combine with oxygen?
It makes a white light which you aren't aloud to look at because it will hurt your eyes.Above is correct. Magnesium and oxygen can burn explosively, producing a LOT of heat, intense light, and magnesium oxide.
What comes when magnesium ribbon is burnt?
a bright light is created and it then creates magnesium oxide
What is the bright white light from when you burn magnesium strips?
The bright light is a byproduct of the reaction caused by applying heat to magnesium, causing it to chemically react with oxygen, therefore producing Magnesium Oxide.
What burns with a bright white light?
Magnesium burns bright white. It is often used in the production of fireworks. Magnesium is the most common metal that burns white, but titanium , aluminum , and beryllium can be mixed to form compounds that also form bright white light.
