ChemSiddiqui Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Hi all, I know its not a very difficult thing to answer, however it is difficult for me who to believe. Does Magnesium reacts with cold water. My guess is yes, but in such a way as if it doesn't, very slow. But, some say it doesn't react AT ALL. whats ur take on it! Answer'll be appreciated! Happy Eid and Merry Christmas to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
