  • why is it important to immediately cover the mg ribbon with the other slab of dry ice once it starts burning?

  • @gianne123 2Mg(s) + CO2 -> 2MgO(s) + C(s)

  • Mg(s) + CO2 -> MgO(s) + CO (g) , right? :) Thanks for the vid!.. when we did the experiment, we failed because we can't ignite the magnesium... :)
