Explanation:

An acid is a substance that produces excess hydroxonium ions in solution.

An acid based on the pH scale is a substance that has a low pH. Acid lies within a range of 1-7 on the pH scale.

A pH of 7 is for neutral compounds like water.
A pH greater that 7 is for basic compounds.
In order to raise the pH, we are driving at a substance becoming more neutral or basic.

This can be achieved by adding more base to the solution of the substance. When we add more base, hydroxyl ions will neutralize the excess hydroxonium ions and drag the pH towards that of neutrality.

Addition of more base can eventually make the substance basic.

In a common experiment in the general chemistry laboratory, magnesium metal is heated in air to produce MgO. MgO is a white soli

Digiron [165]

Explanation:

When magnesium metal burns is heated i the air it forms magnesium oxide.The balanced chemical reaction is given as:

$2Mg+O_2\rightarrow 2MgO$

2 moles of magnesium metal when reacts with 1 moles of oxygen it gives 2 moles of magnesium oxide which is white in color.

Some times along with formation of magnesium oxide small amount of magnesium nitride also produced due to which magnesium oxide appears grey in color .The balanced chemical reaction is given as:

$3Mg+N_2\rightarrow Mg_3N_2$

3 moles of magnesium combines with 1 mol of nitrogen gas to to give 1 mol of magnesium nitride.
