What happens to the mass when magnesium is heated in air?
When magnesium is heated in air, it forms magnesium oxide and so the total mass increases.
What happens when magnesium is inserted in test tube with oxygen?
If heated, magnesium oxide or MgO (a white powder) is formed.
What happens when magnesium bicarbonate is heated?
if heated in air, it undergoes hudrolysis. on strong heating it forms MgO.
What happens when magnesium hydoxide is heated?
When heated to a sufficiently high temperature, solid magnesium hydroxide will decompose into magnesium oxide and water: Mg(OH)2 -> MgO + H2O.
Will magnesium burn with a brilliant white light if heated above 100 degrees?
Yes, magnesium burn in air.
What happens to the mass when magnesium is heated in air?
When magnesium is heated in air, it forms magnesium oxide and so the total mass increases.
What happens to the mass of magnesium when heated?
it will decrease
What happens when magnesium is inserted in test tube with oxygen?

What happens to a piece of magnesium when it is heated?
it become ductile
