∙ 15y agoMg would preferentially form MgO but if there is not enough O2 in the air, it will form Mg3N2 instead
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThe reaction equation is.
Mg3N2 + 3H2O --> 3MgO + 2NH3
The products are magnesium oxide and ammonia.

What is the formula of the compound formed between Mg and N?
This is magnesium nitride - Mg3N2.
What is the balanced equation between magnesium nitrogen and magnesium nitride?
3Mn + N2 ----> Mn3N2 its actually 3mg+N2(arrow) Mg3N2
How many electrons does magnesium lose and nitrogen need to form Mg3N2?
Magnesium loss 2 electrons.
Is Mg3N2 covalent or ionic bonding?
Mg3N2 is ionic containing Mg2+ and N3- ions
Does nitrogen stop magnesium from burning?
No, magnesium can continue tor burn in nitrogen to form magnesium nitride, Mg3N2
What does form after magnesium ignited?
Magnesium oxide, MgO, and magnesium nitride, Mg3N2
What is the formula of the compound formed between Mg and N?
This is magnesium nitride - Mg3N2.
What does insufficient air flow mean?
Insufficient air flow means not enough air is moving for the task at hand. For example, a clogged filter will not let enough air through, creating insufficient air flow.
What is the chemical formula for magnesium nitride?
Formula: Mg3N2
What is the ionic compound for Magnesium and Nitrogen?
Yes, they form Sodium nitride Na3N.
What is the balanced equation for magnesium nitride?
Formula = Mg3N2
What is the balanced equation between magnesium nitrogen and magnesium nitride?
3Mn + N2 ----> Mn3N2 its actually 3mg+N2(arrow) Mg3N2
How many electrons does magnesium lose and nitrogen need to form Mg3N2?
Magnesium loss 2 electrons.
What is the binary formula for magnesium nitride?
MgO. Magnesium typically has a 2+ charge, and oxygen typically has a 2- charge. Since the charges are opposite, magnesium and oxygen join in equal numbers to form magnesium oxide, as suggested by the chemical formula above. And since it cannot be reduced, it is also the empirical formula.
Is Mg3N2 covalent or ionic bonding?
Mg3N2 is ionic containing Mg2+ and N3- ions
Does nitrogen stop magnesium from burning?
No, magnesium can continue tor burn in nitrogen to form magnesium nitride, Mg3N2
When 0.600 mol Mg3N2 reacts with 4.00 mol H2O what is the limiting reactant?
H2o
