One meter is a length measurement, equal to 3.28 feet. You can test this using a meter stick and 1 foot (12 inch) rulers. Lay the meter stick on the ground, and place the rulers end-to-end next to it. Three rulers (3 feet) will almost be as long as the meter stick.
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 and its alloys have very good corrosion resistance and good high temperature mechanical properties.

2. Magnesium has three naturally occuring isotopes. 78.70% of Magnesium atoms exist as Magnesium-24 (23.9850 g/mol), 10.03% exist as Magnesium-25 (24.9858 g/mol) and 11.17% exist as Magnesium-26 (25.9826 g/mol). What is the average atomic mass of Magnesium?
