For this, we first calculate molecular weight of MgSiO₃:
Atomic masses:
Mg = 24
Si = 28
O = 16
Mr = 24 + 28 + 16 x 3
Mr = 100
moles = mass / Mr
moles = 237 / 100
moles = 2.37
Coplorites I believe.
Hope this helps!

Correct me if I'm wrong, anyone who is more informed on this than I am, but wouldn't it be because of the magnetic fields and whatnot? The longer I think on it, the more I feel like I'm wrong, so don't take my word for it 100%
The volume of a gas that is required yo react with 4.03 g mg at STP is 1856 ml
calculation/
- calculate the moles of Mg used
moles=mass/molar mass
moles of Mg is therefore=4.03 g/ 24.3 g/mol=0.1658 moles
- by use of mole ratio of Mg:O2 from the equation which is 2:1
the moles 02=0.1679 x1/20.0829 moles
- at STP 1 mole of a gas= 22.4 l
0.0895 moles=? L
- =0.0895 moles x22.4 l/ 1 mole=1.8570 L
into Ml = 1.8570 x1000=1856 ml approximately to 1860
