Oxidation of Magnesium


Yesterday we did a lab in which we oxidized magnesium and ended up with MgO, or magnesium oxide. we burned a magnesium ribbon that was 25.3cm inside a crucible and we ended up with MgO. We were supposed to get .60MgO left, but i only got .50 so watev my group ended up doing it right anyway so no sweat the lab was fun.
