Answer: The correct equation is 2Mg + O2 ------> 2MgO.
This given statement is wrong because Oxygen usually exists as an diatomic molecule. But in the above equation oxygen is existing as an Monoatomic molecule. Thus it isn't correct. Therefore magnesium reacts with Oxygen Molecule in order to form MAGNESIUM OXIDE. (MgO)
