no the product does not form heavy it depends upon the nature of reactants

nitrogen gas has filled in electric bulbs and to store living cells and tissues...why???
plzz telk
tell*
nitrogen gas are filled in electric bulb to see the light clearly
it provider dark environment
it also prevent the melting of tungsten
i it is store living cells and tissues because it act a antioxidant and does not let the living cells to be oxidized if they will they release a fowll smell and shrink
thanks

2Mg + O2 = 2MgO
The magnesium reacts with Oxygen in the air to form an oxide. It's now heavier because you have the weight of the oxygen that's chemically bonded to the Magnesium you had when you started.
when magnesium burns this reaction occurs
Mg + 1/2 O2---> MgO
So you see you have incorporated 1 oxygen to the atom Mg and the result MgO is heavier as Mg
if you take atomic weights 1 mole of Mg weighs 24g whereas 1 mole of MgO weighs 24+16=40g
