Magnesium

Magnesium ribbon does not evaporate in the traditional sense. When heated to high temperatures, magnesium undergoes a chemical reaction known as oxidation, where it combines with oxygen from the air to form magnesium oxide. This process is not considered evaporation.

Magnesium is highly flammable and burns at very high temperatures, producing a bright white light. It can react with oxygen in the air and ignite spontaneously. Proper precautions should be taken when handling magnesium to prevent fire hazards.

Magnesium oxide is non-flammable, but magnesium can burn. Magnesium oxide Melting Point: 2852 °C, 3125 K, 5166 °F Boiling Point: 3600 °C, 3873 K, 6512 °F Magnesium Melting Point: 923 K, 650 °C, 1202 °F Boiling Point: 1363 K, 1091 °C, 1994 °F

Magnesium derives from name from the Magnesia region of Ancient Greece in which it was found.

The full story is a little more complex than that, but that's the essence of it.

Lemon juice is 2.3 Household ammonia is 10.5-11.9 Salt water is 7.8-8.3 Tap water is about 6.6, (pure water is 7) Vinegar is 3 Tea is about 6.3 Bicarbonate is 8.1 Milk of magnesia is 10-10.5

Magnesium ribbon contains chemical potential energy, which is released when the magnesium reacts with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide. This reaction releases heat and light energy.

The symbol equation for the reaction of magnesium with oxygen to form magnesium oxide is:
2Mg + O2 -> 2MgO

Magnesium Oxide increases in mass because it is made of oxygen AND magnesium, and the symbol equation explains that 2MG (2 magnesium) + O2( 2 oxygen) makes 2MGO (2 Magnesium Oxide) because oxygen is a molecule as the 2 shows that for oxygen it is made up of 2 atoms, and to balance the equation magnesium must be 2 too, making 2 Magnesium Oxide ,this shows the mass increases as oxygen is ADDED to magnesium, thus making it heavier and an increase in mass. Ta-Da just amazing chemistry logic!! :)

Milk of magnesia is a stimulant laxative. It doesn't cause gas but it causes cramping because it stimulates the bowels to force feces out.

Magnesium (Mg). Milk of Magnesia is Mg(OH)2

Magnesium dichromate is a chemical compound with the formula MgCr2O7. It is commonly used as an oxidizing agent in organic chemistry reactions. It is a dark red crystalline powder that is soluble in water.

To prepare milk of magnesia, mix magnesium hydroxide powder with water in a clean container. Stir the mixture until the powder is completely dissolved. The final solution should have a milky appearance and be ready for use as an antacid or laxative.

Well, look up those particular substances, you'll find that most might have actually pharmacologic effects in normal doses.

But the "X" you refer too is how many times said substance was diluted. The higher the number before the X, the weaker the end result.

In homeopathy they use an outdated principle called "water memory" (look up the wiki article). It's a ridiculous concept that has no place in modern medicine, but it's how they roll.

So, a 1X dilution means they take one part of the active ingredient, mix it with nine parts water, and shake vigorously. They then take 9/10 of this solution, and discard it.

For a 3X dilution they do this twice more, each time with the remainder AFTER throwing away the other 9 parts of the mixture.

You can see how this grows exponentially, and results in water. Just plain water, without a single molecule of the "active ingredient" contained within.

I know, I know. I'm just as peeved as you...

Waste of money on sugar pills.

That's what lactose is: A milk sugar. Just so you know.

I was wondering how they get a liquid dilution of a substance into pill form.

And the answer is, they don't. It's all lactose, probably with the water to bind it. Idk how it's made, but its results are strictly placebo.

The standard state of magnesium is solid.

I took it at 1pm today (to prep for a colonoscopy tomorrow morning), and 7.5 hours later I still haven't had a bowel movement. I have tried to drink plenty of hot liquids (tea, coffee, broth), and all I've done is pee!

The amount of elemental magnesium in a bottle of magnesium citrate can vary depending on the concentration of the solution. Typically, a 10 oz bottle of magnesium citrate contains around 1,000-1,200 mg of elemental magnesium. It's important to check the label for the specific amount per serving to determine the total elemental magnesium in the entire bottle.

It is generally recommended to take Milk of Magnesia on an empty stomach, either an hour before meals or at least 2 hours after eating. This helps optimize its effectiveness in relieving constipation or heartburn.

The question is vauge. Moles in atomic scale are equilivant to the number of electrons in the vallance of the magnesium atom ( the outer ring of electrons). Usually supplements are measured in milligrams or sometimes in international units (iu). What are you trying to find?

Milk of magnesia contains the compound magnesium hydroxide, while Epsom salt contains the compound magnesium sulfate. Both compounds are commonly used for their laxative properties and to relieve constipation.

Magnesium is a metal. It is a shiny, silver-white metal that is a good conductor of both electricity and heat.

Magnesium is found in abundance in the Earth's crust, primarily in minerals such as magnesite and dolomite. It is also found in seawater and in minerals like carnalite and kieserite. Many foods and beverages also contain magnesium, which is essential for human health.

Loses two electrons.

No, milk of magnesia is a suspension of magnesium hydroxide in water, which is a base (alkaline) rather than an acid. It is commonly used as an antacid and laxative to neutralize stomach acid and relieve constipation.

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.

Magnesium is a silver-white metal that is lightweight and has a high strength-to-weight ratio. It is a malleable and ductile element that can be easily shaped and is relatively stable in air due to the formation of a thin oxide layer on its surface. Magnesium has a melting point of 650°C and a boiling point of 1090°C.
