The surface of the magnesium is modified using hydrochloric acid as well as hydrogen gas

Rimpa Jaiswal

Mg is very reactive metal and react with atmospheric oxygen to form oxide layer over it and became tarnished black. To avoid it is wash with dilute HCl and dry under inert conditions by using vacuum.

Dear Rimpa Jaiswal , Reem Hussein Abdullah Al

Thank you for your answers.
