Explanation:
When magnesium burns, it is actually reacting with oxygen in the air and not with fire. ... The bright light results because this reaction produces a lot of heat. When the magnesium gets really hot, it emits energy in the form of light (heat is also how the sun produces light).

When magnesium reacts with oxygen, it produces light bright enough to blind you temporarily. Magnesium burns so bright because the reaction releases a lot of heat. As a result of this exothermic reaction, magnesium gives two electrons to oxygen, forming powdery magnesium oxide (MgO).
SO IT'S TRUE
HOPE IT IS HELPFUL FOR YOU
