The metal which burns in the form of "dazzling white flame" and change into a white powder is magnesium. Metals are most reactive elements. "Alkali and alkaline earth metals" are most reactive metals as they can even react with atmospheric oxygen and moisture also.
When magnesium burns, it burns in white color and forms magnesium oxide as white powder.
The balance chemical equation is given below:
