It makes a white light which you aren't aloud to look at because it will hurt your eyes.

Above is correct. Magnesium and oxygen can burn explosively, producing a LOT of heat, intense light, and magnesium oxide.

What are more likely to form an ionic bond a silicon and oxygen b oxygen and oxygen c carbon and hydrogen d magnesium and oxygen?
Magnesium and oxygen as in magnesium oxide
What formula do you get when you combine the elements chlorine and magnesium?
The chemical formula of magnesium chloride is MgCl2.
What are the elements of magnesium hydroxide?
magnesium,hydrogen&oxygen
Why does magnesium get heavier when its burned?
What happens when magnesium burns? What do you need for magnesium to burn? Will magnesium burn if you have it in a closed container? No. Why not? It needs air. Why does it need air? There is oxygen in the air. Magnesium needs oxygen to burn. So, when magnesium burns, you start with magnesium and end up with a compound that contains both magnesium and oxygen. Magnesium has an atomic weight of 24. Oxygen has an atomic weight of 16. So if you start out with 24 grams of Magnesium you should end up with 40 grams of Magnesium Oxide.
What is the coating on a magnesium strip?
Magnesium oxide. It's produced by magnesium reacting with oxygen.
What does magnesuim and oxygen make?
Magnesium and oxygen combine to form magnesium oxide. It is basic in nature.
What elements combine with oxygen?
Magnesium Hydrogen
When magnesium combine with oxygen to form magnesium oxide what type of reaction is form?
combination
What kinds of chemical reactions combination combustion or decomposition is the burning of magnesium in oxygen?
When magnesium is burnt in the presence of oxygen, the magnesium and oxygen combine to form the compound magnesium oxide. Therefore, this would be a combination combustion.
Is burn magnesium a chemical change?
It's a chemical change. The magnesium reacts and combines with the oxygen in the air.
How many moles of magnesium oxide are formed when 4 moles of magnesium react with oxygen Here is the formula 2 Mg plus O 2 is equal to 2 Mg O?
From the formula, you have 2 atoms of Magnesium combine with one oxygen molecule to form 2 molecules of magnesium oxide. So when 4 magnesium atoms combine with two molecules of oxygen you get 4 magnesium oxide molecules. So from 4 moles of magnesium you get 4 moles of Magnesium oxide.
What is a scenario for increasing temperature influence a chemical change?
At room temperature, magnesium and oxygen react very slowly. However, when you burn the magnesium, it will rapidly combine with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide, MgO.
Why do iron and magnisium burn more in oxygen than in air?
Iron and magnesium burn in air under the right circumstances becasue they combine rapidly with oxygen. (Fire is just the rapid combination of oxygen or another oxidizer, wiht a fuel.) Oxygen is only about 20% of air. If you provide pure, 100%, oxygen under the same circumstances, there is more oxygen to combine with the iron or magnesium, so they can burn faster.
What does magnesium combined with?
Magnesium can combine with Aluminum.
Does magnesium react with the gases in your atmosphere?
HI what a retard who would rite hi? lol Magnesium metal is burned in air forming magnesium oxide. This is an interesting oxidation/reduction reaction because it shows the burning of a metal, because the products of the reaction are visible after wards, and because it produces a lot of light.at
Will mg combine with any other elements?
Yes it does. Magnesium is most liekly to combine ionically with the group 16 or 17 elements, like Oxygen, Fluorine, Sulfur, Chlorine, etc.
Can magnesium and radon combine?
no
