Answer 2

Hello divya,

● Answers -
Magnesium burns => Magnesium oxide (MgO) => Basic
Sulphur burns => Sulphur dioxide (SO2) => Acidic

● Explanation -
Magnesium burns in air to form magnesium oxide.
2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO

MgO reacts with water to form magnesium hydroxide. Hence, its alkaline in nature.
MgO + H2O --> Mg(OH)2

Sulphur burns in air to sulphur dioxide.
S + O2 --> SO2

SO2 reacts with water to form sulphurous acid. Hence, its acidic in nature.
SO2 + H2O --> H2SO3

Thanks for asking..
