You can stop the burning of methane with water or carbon dioxide extinguishers but problems arise when you try to use this to stop the burning of the magnesium.
Explanation:
To burn magnesium (Mg) and methane (CH₄) you need to react them with oxygen:
2 Mg (s) + O₂ (g) → 2 MgO + heat
CH₄ (g) + 2 O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g) + heat
However at that temperatures magnesium (Mg) is able to react with water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂).
Mg (s) + 2 H₂O (l) → Mg(OH)₂ (s) + H₂ (g)
2 Mg (s) + CO₂ (g) → 2 MgO (s) + C (s)
So the safe option to stop the burning of the magnesium is to limit the oxygen in the air.
we have used the following notations:
(s) - solid
(g) - gas
(l) - liquid

Answer:
9.64g/mL
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the metal = 106g
Volume of cylinder = 50mL
Volume difference = 31mL - 20mL = 11mL
Unknown:
Density of the metal = ?
Solution:
To find the density of the metal, we use;
Density =
Density =
= 9.64g/mL
The envelope of gases surrounding the earth or another planet.
