Can calcium displace from magnesium?

Yes, calcium can displace magnesium in certain chemical reactions. This is more likely to happen when calcium is in a higher oxidation state than magnesium, allowing it to take the place of magnesium in a compound or reaction.


What is the gas that reacts with calcium and magnesium when they burn?

The gas that reacts with calcium and magnesium when they burn is oxygen. This reaction forms calcium oxide and magnesium oxide as the products.


Would magnesium react with calcium nitrate?

no, it wouldn't calcium is above magnesium in the reactivity series which means that magnesium can't oxidize calcium. calcium can oxidize magnesium so calcium would react with magnesium nitrate with formation of metallic magnesium and calciumnitrate.


What 2 elements make water hard?

magnesium and calcium.


Would calcium be more chemically similar to potassium or to magnesium?

Calcium is more chemically similar to magnesium than to potassium. Both calcium and magnesium are alkaline earth metals, while potassium is an alkali metal. This means that calcium and magnesium have similar chemical properties due to their position on the periodic table.


What is the measurement of the amount of calcium and magnesium which water contains?

The amount of calcium and magnesium in water determines its hardness.


Benefits of liquid calcium and magnesium?

All liquid supplements are more easily absorbed by the body, so liquid calcium would be more likely to be utilized by the body instead of just passing through as frequently happens with regular calcium supplements. In order for calcium to work, it needs magnesium, so liquid magnesium would also be better absorbed by the body so that it can be utilized optimally.


Why cleansing of soap is better in soft water than in hard water?

Because of the presence of Calcium and Magnesium salts.


Research on Which substances melts ice better salt sugar or chalk?

These substances are chlorides of calcium, sodium and magnesium.


What are the benefits of a magnesium-calcium formula?

High levels of calcium supplementation suppress magnesium absorption, so to overcome the magnesium deficiency that can be caused by high level calcium supplementation. Magnesium deficiency causes a decrease in the production, by the kidneys, of dihydroxy vitamin D-3 which results in inefficient absorption of calcium by the intestines and further loss of magnesium by the kidneys. Excess calcium in the body will result in calcium deposits such as kidney stones, arthritis...they will disappear after taking extra magnesium.


Do different types of magnesium react with calcium differently?

When you mean different type of magnesium, it can either be isotopes of magnesium or magnesium compounds. If you mean isotopes, i doubt any isotopes of magnesium is able to react with its calcium brethren. If you're talking bout magnesium compounds, reactivity between the metals depends on the electrochemical series, since magnesium is more electronegative, therefore i dont think calcium is able to displace magnesium from its compound. but magnesium is able to displace calcium from its compound.


What mineral that contains carbon oxygen and the metallic element magnesium would be classified as?

If it contain magnesium but no calcium then it would be magnesite.
