Aqueous magnesium chloride is not used to extract magnesium because the process requires a significant amount of energy to reduce magnesium ions to metallic magnesium. Electrolysis of molten magnesium chloride is the preferred method, as it effectively separates magnesium from chloride ions at high temperatures, allowing for the production of pure magnesium. Additionally, the high solubility of magnesium chloride in water complicates the extraction process, making it less efficient compared to other methods.

Why copper wire is appropriate choice to secure magnesium strip?

Copper wire is a good choice to secure a magnesium strip because copper does not react with magnesium, so it will not interfere with the chemical properties of the magnesium strip. Additionally, copper is malleable and ductile, making it easy to wrap around and secure the magnesium strip in place.
