Magnesium

magnesium hydroxide in dilute suspension used as an ANTI-ACID. Thus a very mild alkaline substance.

Lodestone is found in various parts of the world, including South Africa, Brazil, and the United States. It is commonly found in igneous rocks and can also be formed in sedimentary deposits through the alteration of existing magnetic minerals.

Mg3N2 + MgO + 4H2O --> 4MgO + H2O + 2NH3

The chemical formula of magnesium dibromide is MgBr2.

Magnesium oxide is formed when magnesium metal reacts with oxygen. It is an oxide of magnesium. Magnesium is the metal, and magnesium oxide is the resulting compound formed when magnesium reacts with oxygen.

• Like all metals, it is malleable and can easily conduct electricity.
• It has fairly low melting and boiling points, but its ions are extremely soluble in water.
• It is also quite light, with a density of only ~1.7 times that of water. As a result, it is used in many alloys to lower the weight while maintaining the strength.
• It is very reactive, but like many metals the oxide layer formed on contact with air protects the bulk from further corrosion.
• When powdered or in strips, it can easily be ignited and will visibly form bubbles when placed in water.

Magnesium carbonate (MgCO3) is a white solid, inorganic salt. It has a high decomposition temperature, although there is dispute as to what this temperature is. Temperatures between 302 degrees Celsius and 662 degrees Celsius have been given by different reputable sources. It is non-toxic, although may be irritating to the skin and eyes. Magnesium Carbonate is also non-soluble in water and is often used as a drying agent.

It is not recommended to take milk of magnesia while on Coumadin (warfarin) without consulting your healthcare provider. Milk of magnesia can affect the absorption of Coumadin and may alter its effectiveness in thinning the blood properly. Always consult your healthcare provider before taking any new medications or supplements while on Coumadin.

Magnesium is named after an ancient Greek city of Magnesia, near where it was first found.

Colour of Magnesium, like most other metals, it silvery white

The pH of Milk of Magnesia is approximately 10.5

The chemical formula of milk of magnesia is Mg(OH)2.

I was told by my doctor to use it daily to prevent the constipation i encounter. I asked if i could use it daily without any problems and he said (quote) "yes you can use it for a year and stop or use it the rest of your life".

If taking it daily, you should also take a multi-vitamin, or just a potassium pill, or eat a banana. This is because the bowel movement associated with Milk of Magnesia removes much of the potassium in your body. So you need to replace the potassium as often as you take the Magnesia.

The human body is very much like a thin rubber bag full of salt water. Usually the thin insulating membrane known as our skin does an excellent job of protecting us from all manner of harm, such as a poke with sharp stick, bacteria, viruses, dirt, and (only becoming an issue in the last 100 years) electricity. If any of these things are able to get past the protective barrier of our skin, they can cause a great deal of harm. Cuts, sores, scrapes, abrasions, and rashes all represent weak spots in our skin and all of them are potential routes for infection. They are also potential routes for electric shocks to do much more harm than we are accustomed to them doing. Although the skin has a very large resistance (on the order of MegaOhms), the salt water (electrolyte) solution that is in your body is designed specifically to conduct electricity, so that your nerve impulses can reach the muscles and do those little things we enjoy doing so much, such as walking and breathing. Normally, dry skin in good condition is insulating enough to provide fair protection against electric shocks up to 120VAC, such as is found in a typical North American electrical outlet. 240VAC is quite capable of knocking you flat on your ass and rendering you unconscious for a while, but still little lasting damage is usually done. If the electrical shock is strong enough, it will stop your heart and kill you.

The pH of milk of magnesia is typically around 10.5, making it slightly basic. This alkaline nature helps neutralize stomach acid, making it an effective treatment for heartburn and indigestion.

I had a friend of mine who walked everyday around the high school track for a really long time and she never went into labor. She tried everything, short of castor oil. She ended up having to have a c-section, but she did not say why she had to have one. I too walked miles when 4 days overdue and ended up being induced 4 days after that.

Well, I DO NOT KNOW HOW YOU DISPOSE MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE BECAUSE I ASKED THE QUESTION.!

Anyhow thanks?

Magnesium gets its name from Magnesia, a region in Thessaly, Greece where the mineral magnesite was first discovered. Magnesite is a compound of magnesium, hence the element was named after the region.

Magnesium Oxide Reacts With Sulfur Trioxide

added: Magnesium sulfate is formed:

MgO + SO3 --> MgSO4

ADVANTAGES:

Zinc has many uses. Zinc can be used to create many different alloys, including brass, which is made up of almost 50% zinc. Also, zinc is used quite often as an anti-corrosive agent, which is to say that it can be used as a coating for things that would otherwise fall apart. Zinc oxide, a compound of zinc and oxygen, is used by artists as a white pigment in paints.

DISADVANTAGES:

Zinc is less dense than iron, which could be taken as a bad or a good thing. Zinc is very hard and brittle, but between the temperatures of 100 and 150 degrees celsius it becomes malleable, which means you can bend and move it.

Magnesium's normal phase is a solid at room temperature. It has a metallic appearance and is a common element used in various industrial applications.

Magnesium was first isolated by Sir Humphry Davy in 1808. He conducted an experiment using a mixture of magnesia (magnesium oxide) and mercuric oxide, and through electrolysis, he was able to isolate magnesium for the first time.

The chemical formula of Magnesium sulfate is MgSO4.

Magnesium is an abundant element on Earth. Magnesium is not found in a pure form because it bonds with other elements. A process has to be applied to get the Magnesium separated from the other elements.

Hornblende is a common mineral found in a variety of igneous and metamorphic rocks, including granite, diorite, and gneiss. It can also be found in some hydrothermal veins and as a constituent of some skarn deposits. Hornblende is widespread and can be found in many locations worldwide.
