1.	Write the word equation for the reaction reaction of magnesium with boiling water
Answer» Magnesium virtually has no reactionwith cold water. It reacts slowly with hot water to give hydrogen GAS and white magnesium hydroxide, which is only slightly SOLUBLE in water. Hydrogen gas is given out in the reaction. Magnesium + water �> magnesium hydroxide SOLUTION + hydrogen Mg(s) + 2H2O(l)>Mg(OH)2(s)+H2(g)
