Q

G2M reaction with water

A

Beryllium= no reaction due to thick oxide layer
Magnesium= slight reaction to cold water
Mg(s) + 2H2O(l) —> Mg(OH)2 (s) + H2 (g)
Reaction soon stops because magnesium hydroxide is almost insoluble in water and forms a barrier
Magnesium will react with steam to form metal hydroxide and hydrogen
Mg(s) + H2O(l)—>MgO(aq) + H2(g)
Other G2M react with cold water with increasing vigour to give metal hydroxide and hydrogen
Ca(s) + 2H2O(l)—>Ca(OH)2 (aq) + H2(g)
