because the ribbon kept in air for some time during the time it reacts with the co2 in the air and forms a coat magnesium carbonate, so we need to remove that layer before we burn

Hey

Here is your answer

Magnesium ribbon should be cleaned before burning it in air to remove the oxide layer from it which may prevent or slow down the burning of magnesium ribbon.

Hope it helps
