It does not decrease in mass, only weight, the mass is still all there, but as when it has been heated smoke is given off from the element, and goes into the atmosphere. It may not sound like the mass is all there with the heated element, but if the smoke were conserved during the experiment the weight would be the same as before the experiment.

If 13.0g of MgSO47H2O is thoroughly heated what mass of anhydrous magnesium sulfate will remain?
8.79 grams of magnesium sulfate will remain.
What happens to the mass of magnesium when heated?
it will decrease
When 24g of magnesium metal is heated in air 40g of magnesium oxide is produced. What mass of magnesium would be needed in order to produce 10g of magnesium oxide?
6g
What substance is remaining when magnesium carbonate powder is heated Also why does the mass change Thanks?
Magnesium oxide. Carbon dioxide is released as agas.
How and why does the mass of a magnesium strip change when it is heated strongly in air?
When a magnesium strip is heated strongly in air, it undergoes a chemical reaction called oxidation. Magnesium reacts with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide. The mass of the strip increases because magnesium combines with oxygen atoms from the air to form a heavier compound (magnesium oxide).
If 13.0g of MgSO47H2O is thoroughly heated what mass of anhydrous magnesium sulfate will remain?
8.79 grams of magnesium sulfate will remain.
What happens to the mass of magnesium when heated?
it will decrease
If a 2.743 g sample of magnesium sulphate crystals was heated strongly what would be the mass of the cooled dehydrated salt?
The mass of the anhydrous magnesium sulfate is 2,112 g.
What happens to the mass when magnesium is heated in air?
When magnesium is heated in air, it forms magnesium oxide and so the total mass increases.
What happens when you magnesium is heated in air?
Magnesium's mass increases as it becomes magnesium oxide.
Do MgSO4 and NaCl weigh the same?
No Magnesium Sulfate (MgSO4) has a mass of 121, and Sodium Chloride (NaCl) has a mass of 59.
When 24g of magnesium metal is heated in air 40g of magnesium oxide is produced. What mass of magnesium would be needed in order to produce 10g of magnesium oxide?
6g
Is magnesium fluoride a mixture?
No, magnesium is an element and therefore a pure substance.
What substance is remaining when magnesium carbonate powder is heated Also why does the mass change Thanks?
Magnesium oxide. Carbon dioxide is released as agas.
Analysis test for magnesium oxide?
Magnesium is weighed and then heated in a crucible. It reacts with oxygen to produce the oxide. It can be shown that there has been an increase in mass.
How and why does the mass of a magnesium strip change when it is heated strongly in air?
When a magnesium strip is heated strongly in air, it undergoes a chemical reaction called oxidation. Magnesium reacts with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide. The mass of the strip increases because magnesium combines with oxygen atoms from the air to form a heavier compound (magnesium oxide).
What mass of magnesium sulphate is needed to make 1500 ml of a 2.45 m mgso4 solution?
1.5 liter * 2.45 moles/liter = 3.675 molesMolar mass of magnesium sulfate is 120.3676 g/mol3.675x120.3676 =442.35093g
