Yes, but very slowly.
Yes, alkali can react with magnesium, particularly when magnesium is in its elemental form. In the presence of strong alkalis, such as sodium hydroxide, magnesium can react to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. This reaction typically occurs at elevated temperatures or in the presence of water. However, magnesium does not react significantly with alkalis at room temperature.
Magnesium (Mg) does react with water, although not as vigorously as certain other metals like sodium. The reaction tends to be slow and is influenced by the presence of certain impurities or the temperature of the water. Magnesium reacts with water to produce magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
No, magnesium sulfate will not react with magnesium because magnesium sulfate is a salt that dissolves in water to form magnesium ions and sulfate ions. Pure magnesium does not react with magnesium sulfate.
Magnesium is reactive with oxygen, water, and acids. It can react vigorously with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, with water to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, and with acids to form magnesium salts and hydrogen gas.
Potassium reacts vigorously with water, producing hydrogen gas and forming potassium hydroxide. Magnesium reacts slowly with water, liberating hydrogen gas and forming magnesium hydroxide. Copper does not react with water at room temperature due to its low reactivity with water molecules.

No, magnesium sulfate will not react with magnesium because magnesium sulfate is a salt that dissolves in water to form magnesium ions and sulfate ions. Pure magnesium does not react with magnesium sulfate.
When potassium, magnesium, and manganese are mixed with water separately, they will undergo different chemical reactions. Potassium will react vigorously with water, magnesium will react slowly to produce magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, while manganese will not react with water under normal conditions.

Magnesium. I believe Magnesium does not react to fresh water but salt water is very corrosive and will disolve the metal.
When magnesium touches water it has a very small reaction hardly noticeable
m + H2O => mOH + H (or 2m + 2H2O => 2mOH + H2)
Yes.
no magnesium doesn't react with pure H2O
Metal reacting with oxygen is known as oxidation. A common form of this process is found in the rusting of iron, where the iron reacts with oxygen to form iron oxide (known as rust).
When magnesium oxide is added to water, it will react to form magnesium hydroxide, a salt solution, and release heat. This reaction is exothermic and the magnesium hydroxide formed will be a white solid that will dissolve in water to form the salt solution.
Magnesium does react with water at room temperature. It does however not catch fire as such. It is a "slow" reaction and does not self-ignite. It forms Magnesium Oxide and Hydrogen when it reacts with water. Larger (not that large) quantities of Magnesium on fire will not be put out by being submerged in water. Water can however put it out if one sprays it with water at high enough force. This will cool down the metal and it will not longer be able to sustain the fire. It will burn in an atmosphere of pure nitrogen unlike almost any other fires. Easiest way to put out a Magnesium fire is to cover it with sand or salt.
