Why Magnesium metal is a better conductor than Sodium metal?
Because there are a higher amount of delocalised electrons.
Metal fires such as sodium titanium magnesium potassium uranium lithium plutonium calcium and others are flammable?
Magnesium, calcium, sodium, lithium, uranium, plutonium can be flammable - depending on the temperature and the physical form. Titanium is flammable at high temperature.
What kind of bond is sodium and magnesium?
Sodium metal and magnesium metal have metallic bonds. They do form an alloy which also contains metallic bonds.
Is magnesium more reactant than sodium?
Not it's not. Sodium is an Alkaline Metal, and Magnesium is an Alkaline Earth Metal, therefore Sodium is more reactant than Magnesium. It is because Alkaline Metals are more reactant than Alkaline Earth Metals.
Why does magnesium ribbon not react with sodium sulphate solution?
as a displacement reaction has to occur when the metal is higher in the reactivity series thatn the metal in the salt. With your question this is not the case as sodium is higher than magnesium and so nothing will take effect.
Is sodium a nonmetal that is at room temperature?
No, sodium is a metal.
Which is the most malleable metal at room temperature?
Magnesium
Is sodium a powder?
At room temperature sodium is a soft metal.
Why is magnesium a liquid at room temperature?
No, Magnesium is a solid metal, melting at 922 K.
What is the state a room temperature for magnesium?
Magnesium is a solid at room temperature.The only metal that is a liquid at room temperature is Mercury.
What element would be more reactive than magnesium?
Magnesium is more reactive than copper because if you study the periodic table, you will be able to find out that Magnesium is more reactive.Also, coins are made out of copper, they choose copper because it is cheap and extremely unreactive.Furthermore, I've done an experiment to find out that Magnesium is more reactive than Copper by putting both elements into Water/Acid.
What metal reacts with oxygen when heated?
Magnesium, Iron, Copper,sodium and potassium
