When you dissolve magnesium oxide with water and add universal indicator what colour do you see?

When magnesium oxide dissolves in water and universal indicator is added, the solution may turn blue or purple. Universal indicator changes color based on the pH of the solution, and in this case, the basic nature of magnesium oxide may cause the solution to shift towards these colors.


If i mix Magnesium oxide and sulphuric acid?

You can react sulphuric acid with magnesium oxide.The reaction will look a little like this. sulphuric acid + magnesium oxide -> magnesium sulphate + water. However the salt dissolves into the liquid so u get a solution, a nd if u add universal indicator it will turn darkish blue for it is a alkaline.


Why must the surface coating of Magnesium Oxide be removed prior to determining the mass of magnesium used in the experiment?

The surface coating of Magnesium Oxide can add extra mass to the sample, leading to an inaccurate measurement of the pure magnesium used in the experiment. Removing the coating ensures that only the actual magnesium content is being measured, improving the precision and accuracy of the results.


What acid makes magnesium sulphate?

Well, well, well, look who's curious about chemistry! The acid that forms magnesium sulfate is sulfuric acid. When sulfuric acid reacts with magnesium oxide or magnesium hydroxide, it produces magnesium sulfate along with water. So, there you have it, sulfuric acid is the matchmaker for magnesium sulfate.


What do you add to sulpuric acid to get iron sulphate?

You would add iron oxide (rust) to sulfuric acid to produce iron sulfate and water in a chemical reaction.

What is the difference in mixing magnesium oxide with sulfuric acid than mixing magnesium carbonate with sulfuric acid?

Magnesium Oxide and Magnesium Carbonate are very different, Magnesium Oxide is Magnesium fused with Oxygen whereas Magnesium Carbonate is Magnesium fused with Carbon and Oxygen. The suffix "ate" means that an oxygen atom is involved. This added element (carbon) means that there will be a slight change in product. The chemical formula for Magnesium carbonate is MgCO3 whereas Magnesium oxide is MgO. See how there are two extra oxygens and one extra carbon? Add them together and you have CO2 and this is your difference. The difference in mixing magnesium oxide with sulfuric acid rather than mixing magnesium carbonate with sulfuric acid is that sulfuric acid and Magnesium carbonate create CO2 whereas Magnesium Oxide and sulfuric acid do not.

Does the coating on a magnesium strip change the mass of magnesium oxide?

Yes, the coating on a magnesium strip can affect the mass of magnesium oxide because the coating can add additional mass to the strip. When the magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, the mass of the coating is also included in the total mass of the resulting compound.


How can you separate magnesium oxide into its elements?

Well, first you would heat magnesium in a crucible over a Bunsen burner, and this will cause the magnesium to react with both the oxygen and nitrogen in the air by the following equations: 2Mg(s) + O2(g) -> 2MgO(s) 3Mg(s) + O2(g) -> Mg3N2(s) Now you will want to purify the solution by getting rid of the MgN. To do that, you add water to the magnesium oxide and magnesium nitride and heat it, causing the water to react with the magnesium nitride by the following reaction: Mg3N2(s) + 6H2O(l) -> 2NH3(g) + 3Mg(OH)2(s) As you continue heating, the ammonia is driven off into the air, and the magnesium hydroxide decomposes by the following formula: Mg(OH)2(s) -> H2O(l) + MgO(s) Thus you are left with only MgO, because the during the heating the water is changed to gas and driven off as well. So all in all you added heat and water! Hope this helps!


Is magneisium a metal after being burnt?

No, it becomes a compound. It burns in oxygen, nitrogen, and even in carbon dioxide. It becomes magnesium oxide or magnesium nitride. I should add that although the element magnesium is still present, it is not in its metallic form.

Why does magnesium get heavier when its burned?

When magnesium is burned, it combines with oxygen from the air to form magnesium oxide. This reaction increases the overall weight of the magnesium because the newly formed magnesium oxide has a greater mass than the original magnesium metal due to the added oxygen atoms.
