Question
I do not know how to find the mass of magnesium and I also do not know how to find the mass of the crucible as well as the mass of the product. I provided the tables with the data
**Educational Transcription of the Image:**

---

**Next Steps:**

List the next five steps with a brief rationale for each step (Why is it done?).

1. **Stir the residue gently** to ensure it remains within the crucible.
2. **Add water** to minimize the amount of MgO lost.
3. **Reheat the crucible** and repeat the process to ensure complete reaction.
4. **Allow mass due to heating to cool** and obtain and record the mass of MgO.
5. **Clean the crucible** and store it away.

**Final Results:**

| Observation of Product | Mass of Product and Crucible | Mass of Crucible (from First Data Table) | Mass of Product (Show Calculation) |
|------------------------|------------------------------|---------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|
| Flaky and light gray solid | 31.970 g                       |                                       |                                   |

This section details the observed characteristics and quantitative measurements of the experiment. The product obtained is described as a "flaky and light gray solid." The mass of the product, along with the crucible, is recorded as 31.970 grams.

**Empirical Formula of Magnesium Hydroxide: Procedures and Data**

**Watch the following video and answer the following questions. I suggest you use a split screen so that you can watch the experiment as you collect the data.**

**STEP 1:** Determine the mass of the Magnesium. Record the data in the table below:

|                          | Mass (g)    |
|--------------------------|-------------|
| Mass of Crucible and Lid | 31.064 g    |
| Mass of Crucible and Lid and Magnesium | 31.634 g    |
| Mass of Magnesium (show calculation) |             |

**STEP 2:** Heat the Magnesium.

- What are two safety warnings?
  - Do not look directly at burning Mg
  - \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

The author provides several tips for successfully heating the magnesium. List two here:
- Keep the bunsen burner close to the crucible.
- Raise the lid periodically to aid the combustion of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.

Note: Fill in the blanks and calculations during your experiment.
