What does magnesium ribbon leave after burning?
MgO, Magnesium oxide.
What is the word equation for burning magnesium ribbon?
magnesium + oxygen gas ----D magnesium oxide
Is it possible that nitrogen could react with magnesium ribbon?
yes. during the ignition of the magnesium ribbon, if expose in a nitrogenous atmosphere it could result to a substance called magnesium nitride
Why is the burning of magnesium ribbon a synthesis reaction?
When you burn magnesium, you are taking two elements, magnesium and oxygen, and combining them to form a compound, magnesium oxide. That is synthesis.
What is the type of reaction for Mg ribbon burning in fire?
Magnesium is converted into Magnesium oxide. 2Mg + O2 -----> 2MgO
Is burning a magnesium ribbon a physical change?
No. Burning magnesium, or burning anything for that matter, is a chemical change. The magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, and to some degree reacts with nitrogen to form magnesium nitride.
