Question

Write the chemical equations for burning of magnesium in air

Answer 1

Answer:

2 Mg (s) + O2 (g) → 2 MgO (s)

Explanation:

Magnesium burning up with air is an example of combustion.

Answer 2

Answer:

Word equation:Magnesium (Mg) + Oxygen (O2)→Magnesium oxide (MgO)

Chemical equation:2Mg+O2→2MgO

It is undoubtedly a chemical change because Magnesium(s) burn in air and converts to Magnesium (II) Oxide.
