Does magnesium react with acids?

Metallic magnesium reacts violently with acids.


What is magnesium reactive with?

Magnesium is reactive with oxygen, water, and acids. It can react vigorously with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, with water to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, and with acids to form magnesium salts and hydrogen gas.


Can magnesium float in acids?

no, magnesium never floats in acids...........


What happens when you put magnesium in a base?

Magnesium does not seem to react with dilute aqueous alkalis or bases. However, it does react with acids like sulfuric acid by dissolving in it.


Does magnesium react faster with acids than iron does?

Yes, and violently so.


Do weak acids react faster with magnesium metal than strong acids?

No, weak acids do not react faster with magnesium metal than strong acids. Strong acids typically react more vigorously and rapidly with metals due to their ability to fully dissociate in solution and release more hydrogen ions, which drive the metal to oxidize. Weak acids, on the other hand, partially dissociate and release fewer hydrogen ions, resulting in a slower reaction rate with metals such as magnesium.


Would magnesium react with dilute sulfuric acid why?

Yes, magnesium metal will react with dilute sulfuric acid to produce magnesium sulfate and hydrogen gas. This is a common reaction in chemistry labs to study the reactivity of metals with acids.


What happens when you add acid to magnesium?

When acid is added to magnesium, the acid reacts with the magnesium to produce magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. The chemical reaction can be represented by the equation: 2HCl + Mg -> MgCl2 + H2.


What substance can acids react to produce hydrogen gas?

Acids can react with metals (such as zinc or magnesium) to produce hydrogen gas. The acid reacts with the metal to form a salt and hydrogen gas is released as a byproduct of the reaction.


How does magnesium react in acid?

Magnesium reacts with acid to produce magnesium ions and hydrogen gas. The magnesium metal dissolves in the acid while releasing hydrogen gas as a byproduct. This reaction is typically fast and exothermic.


What is the gas evolved when magnesium react with HC2H3O2?

HC2H3O2 is acetic acid. Magnesium will react with water or acids to produce hydrogen gas.


Which solution will react with magnesium metal?

Magnesium is very reactive and will react with many different solutions including those composed of acids. Example: 2HCl(aq)+Mg(s)->H2(g)+MgCl2(aq)
