The oxidation or combustion of magnesium in air has long been used as a source of intense light in photography and for other photochemical reactions. The energy released in this combustion occurs as the magnesium reacts with oxygen in the air according to the equation:
2 Mg (s) + O2 (g) → 2 MgO (s)
The heat of formation of magnesium oxide is -601.83 kJ/mol. When magnesium burns, approximately 10% of the energy of combustion occurs as light, a value unapproached among known transformations of energy used in the production of light.
