When magnesium is in its metal form it will burn very easily in air. However, in order to start the reaction (the burning) the magnesium metal needs a source of energy. The flame provides a source of heat so that the magnesium metal atoms can overcome their activation energy.
Characteristics: Uses: Magnesium is a silvery-white, low density, reasonably strong metal that tarnishes in air to form a thin oxide coating. Magnesium and its alloys have very good corrosion resistance and good high temperature mechanical properties.The metal reacts with water to produce hydrogen gas.When it burns in air, magnesium produces a brilliant white light. The brilliant light it produces when ignited is made use of in photography, flares, pyrotechnics and incendiary bombs.agnesium compounds such as the hydroxide (milk of magnesia, Mg(OH 2)), sulfate (Epsom salts), chloride and citrate are used for medicinal purposes.
