Explain what happens when magnesium metal is oxidized.
Oxidation of magnesium $\Rightarrow$$2 M g(s)+O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2 M g O(s)$Magnesium is held to a flame, it reacts rapidly and violently with oxygen, producing an almost blindinglight. This metal is also combining with oxygen, but it is a much more exothermic reaction and happensquite rapidly once it gets started.

in problem toe. Explain what happened when magnesium metal is oxidized. So when Mag nation reacts with the oxygen, then it will form magnesium oxide, which is m g o. So we can balance this situation. So this is the balance situation. So in this election, we see that this mag nation, when it is oxidized, then it will produce magnesium oxide, which is m t o. So in this reaction we can see that this magnesium is oxidized. Magnesium is oxidized or we can see that the oxidation off magnesium can take place in this a situation oxidation off magnesium. So magnetism is held. So magnesium is hell to a flame. It reacts rapidly and violently. It reacts rapidly and violently with oxygen and producing and almost blinding late. So this mental is also combined with oxygen. In this metal is also combining with oxygen. But it is much more exact thermic reaction. But it is much more eggs, atomic reaction and happens quite rapidly once it gets started.
