Question

When a magnesium ribbon is burnt in oxygen, it gets converted to magnesium oxide. Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction?

Answer 1

1)

2Mg + O₂  ---> 2MgO

Compound X ==> MgO  [ Magnesium Oxide ]

Compound Y ==> Mg₃N₂  [ Magnesium Nitride ]

if "X" , that is , Magnesium Oxide is dissolved in water , the product is Magnesium Hydroxide 

MgO  + H₂O ---> Mg(OH)₂

This equation is already balanced !!
