        What Are The Properties Of Magnesium?

        Chemical Properties of Magnesium:  Magnesium is a fairly active metal and does not exist in a free state in nature. It reacts slowly with cold water and more rapidly with hot water. It combines with oxygen at room temperature to form magnesium oxide. It burns with a bright light at higher temperatures. Magnesium reacts with most acids and with some alkali metals. Magnesium also combines easily with many non-metals. It also reacts readily with a number of compounds.

        Physical Properties of Magnesium:  Magnesium is a, silvery-white metal, soft and light metal with a density of 1.75 g/mL It is the lightest of all structural metals. Magnesium is easily shaped, molded, bent, and cut.  The melting point of magnesium is 650°C (1202.0 °F) and its boiling point is 1107.0 °C (2024.6 °F) Magnesium is a good conductor of electricity and heat.
