Does magnesium burn better in nitrogen or oxygen?
Magnesium burn in oxygen; burning is an oxidation reaction. Magnesium also reacts with nitrogen at high temperature to form Mg3N2 where the magnesium is oxidised, i.e. loses electrons. When magnesium is burnt in air some nitride is produced which hydrolyses to give a faint smell of ammonia. The enthalpy of formation (heat of reaction) is greater for MgO than for Mg3N2.
What is the correct name for magnesium and oxygen?
The compound formed by magnesium and oxygen is called 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
When magnesium combines with oxygen what does the reaction involve?
Magnesium reacts violently with oxygen to make Magnesium Oxide
What do magnesium and oxygen make?
If you heat magnesium and oxygen together then you will make MgO or Magnesium oxide.
Magnesium reacts with oxygen to form?
Magnesium reacts with oxygen to create magnesium oxide. Magnesium(Mg)+Oxygen(O2)--------> magnesium oxide(MgO) 2Mg+O2 ------>2 MgO
What compounds are formed when magnesium reacts with oxygen?
Magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide (MgO).
What does magnesium and oxygen equal?
Magnesium and Oxygen equals Magnesium Oxide (2MgO) 2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO
Is magnesium and oxygen elements compounds or mixtures?
magnesium and oxygen are elements. They are not compounds
What is the metal which reacts oxygen to form magnesium oxide?
Magnesium is the metal which reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.
When magnesium metal is burned in the presence of oxygen magnesium oxide are different than the individual properties of magnesium and oxygen because magnesium oxide is?
It is a compound.
What is the word equation for burning magnesium in the air?
The word equation is magnesium + oxygen(air) = magnesium oxide. The Balanced chemical eq'n is 2Mg(s) + O2(g) = 2MgO(s)
