    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_peroxide

    Magnesium peroxide is a stable oxygen releasing compound, which is used in agricultural and environmental industries. It is used to reduce contaminant levels in groundwater . Magnesium peroxide is used in the bioremediation of contaminated soil and can improve the soil quality for plant growth and metabolism .

  4. Oxygen balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_balance

    A molecule is said to have a positive oxygen balance if it contains more oxygen than is needed and a negative oxygen balance if it contains less oxygen than is needed. [2] An explosive with a negative oxygen balance will lead to incomplete combustion, which commonly produces carbon monoxide, which is a toxic gas. Explosives with negative or ...

  6. Tungsten carbide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungsten_carbide

    Tungsten carbide (chemical formula: WC) is a chemical compound (specifically, a carbide) containing equal parts of tungsten and carbon atoms. In its most basic form, tungsten carbide is a fine gray powder, but it can be pressed and formed into shapes through sintering [7] for use in industrial machinery, engineering facilities, [8] molding blocks, [9] cutting tools, chisels, abrasives, armor ...

  7. Magnesium oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_oxide

    Magnesium oxide (Mg O), or magnesia, is a white hygroscopic solid mineral that occurs naturally as periclase and is a source of magnesium (see also oxide).It has an empirical formula of MgO and consists of a lattice of Mg 2+ ions and O 2− ions held together by ionic bonding.

    A magnum cartridge is a firearm cartridge with a larger case size than, or derived from, a similar cartridge of the same projectile caliber and case shoulder shape. [ clarification needed ] The term derives from the .357 Magnum , the original revolver cartridge with this designation.

  9. Magnesium nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_nitride

    Magnesium nitride reacts with water to produce magnesium hydroxide and ammonia gas, as do many metal nitrides.. Mg 3 N 2 (s) + 6 H 2 O(l) → 3 Mg(OH) 2 (aq) + 2 NH 3 (g). In fact, when magnesium is burned in air, some magnesium nitride is formed in addition to the principal product, magnesium oxide.
