    Hi,
    Magnesium nitride, Mg3N2, is an inorganic compound of magnesium and nitrogen. At room temperature and pressure it is a greenish yellow powder. It reacts with water to produce ammonia gas, as do many metal nitrides.

        Mg3N2 + 6 H2O ? 3 Mg(OH)2 + 2 NH3

    Magnesium nitride can be produced by burning magnesium metal in a pure nitrogen atmosphere.

        3 Mg + N2 ? Mg3N2

    In fact, when magnesium is burned in air, some magnesium nitride is formed in addition to the principal product, magnesium oxide.
