Answer:

Magnesium ribbon should be cleaned before burning in air.

Explanation:

Magnesium ribbon which we usually use as a coating of a white layer of magnesium oxide on its surface.

It is formed due to the slow reaction of moist air on it.

These hinders the burning of magnesium.So, this layer is removed by rubbing with sand paper before burning.
