Explanation / Answer

1) Mg

heat of vaporisation=128KJ/mol

viscosity-(at melting point) 1.44 mPas

solubility-Mg2+ salts are soluble in aqueous solvents due to polar characteristics

color of dilute aqueous solution or pure liquids on litmus paper-neutral so no color change of litmus

effect of aqueous solution or pure liquids on litmus paper-no effect

reaction with BaCl_2 (aq) or AgNO_3 (aq) =no precipitation as Mg -Mg is more reactive so displaces less reactive metals from their salts-MgCl2 with BaCl2 and Mg(NO3)2 with AgNO3

solubility in solvents other than water,such as ethanol-Not soluble in aqueous or organic solvents,Mg2+ salts are ionic so soluble in water (Polar)

ability to decolorize a dilute solution of KMnO4- yes, Mg is in its reduced form so can only get oxidized to Mg2+ by reducing KMnO4 (+7 oxidation state )to (Mn2+),decolorised,vigourous reaction.

Reaction with (NaON) or (NH_3-MgO with NaOH (in aqueous solution)

4NaOH+ 2Mg-->2MgO+2Na2O+H2 (bubbles)

Reaction with (HCI) or (NH_3)-MgCl2 and H2 with HCl

Mg+2HCl---->MgCl2+H2

flammability-flame temperature upto 3100 deg C,bright white colored flame
