Does magnesium react with water at ordinary temperature?
Yes, but very slowly.
What happens when a piece of magnesium is dropped into a beaker of hot water?
It will react slowly to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
Can magnesium catch fire in cold water?
No, magnesium cannot catch fire in cold water. It reacts only slowly. And only briefly, too, as a film of magnesium hydroxide forms creating a barrier to further reaction.
Difference between magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide?
Magnesium oxide will react with water to form Magnesium Hydroxide. Magnesium Hydroxide will not reat further with water
What gas was produced when water is being added to Magnesium Oxide?
Magnesium oxide don't react with water.

Which metals react slowly with cold water but vigorously with steam?
All metals, if they do react with water at all, react faster in steam than in water. However, the metals that react SLOWLY with cold water are the metals from Group-IIA(Magnesium, Calcium, etc).

No, magnesium cannot catch fire in cold water. It reacts only slowly. And only briefly, too, as a film of magnesium hydroxide forms creating a barrier to further reaction.
What happens when magnesium oxide is added to water the salt will be?
Magnesium oxide react with water and magnesium hydroxide is formed.
What is produced when magnesium and water react?
Magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas
What is a metal that reacts to salt water but does not react to fresh water?
Magnesium. I believe Magnesium does not react to fresh water but salt water is very corrosive and will disolve the metal.
Does magnesium react with water?
When magnesium touches water it has a very small reaction hardly noticeable
Does water react with magnesium oxide?
Yes.
Difference between magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide?
Magnesium oxide will react with water to form Magnesium Hydroxide. Magnesium Hydroxide will not reat further with water
Can magnesium burn with just water?
no magnesium doesn't react with pure H2O
What gas was produced when water is being added to Magnesium Oxide?
Magnesium oxide don't react with water.
