Magnesium

Description:
Magnesium is a chemical element with the symbol Mg and atomic number 12. It is a shiny, silvery-white metal that is relatively light and has a low density. Magnesium is classified as an alkaline earth metal and is known for its high reactivity, particularly with oxygen and water, although it reacts more slowly with water at room temperature. It has a melting point of about 650 degrees Celsius and a boiling point of approximately 1090 degrees Celsius. Magnesium is essential for biological systems, playing a crucial role in various enzymatic processes and is a key component of chlorophyll in plants. In terms of its physical properties, magnesium is malleable and ductile, allowing it to be easily shaped and formed. It is commonly used in alloys to enhance strength and reduce weight, particularly in aerospace and automotive applications. Additionally, magnesium compounds, such as magnesium oxide and magnesium sulfate, have various industrial and medicinal uses. Due to its reactivity, magnesium must be stored carefully, often in inert environments to prevent oxidation.
