~Where Mighty is from ==== Magnesium is not naturally found. However, you can find it in carnallite or dolomite. Magnesium is the 7th most abundant element found in the earths crust. Mighty Magnesium can be extracted from the sea. Every cubic kilometer of seawater contains about 1.3 billion kilograms of magnesium (12 billion pounds per cubic mile). ====

~How was Mighty discovered Magnesium was first isolated by Sir Humphrey Davy, an English chemist through the process of electrolysis in 1808. However, in 1618 it was discovered by a farmer in Epsom, England, when his cows refused to drink the water from a certain mineral well this element was Hydrated magnesium sulphate (MgSO4·7H2O). magnesium is very good for your body and should be apart of every diet.

~ Physical properties

Magnesium is a light weight metal. That has a boil temp of 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit and a melting point of 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, is capable of being shaped or beaten down to very thin sheets. When Magnesium is alloyed with other metals it makes the metals easier to mold and wield such as Allie Aluminum. Besides that, Magnesium is flammable and burns with a white bright flame.Magnesium shares many properties with Carl Calcium at one point in time people that they were the same element.(The Element Magnesium)

~interesting facts about Mighty

> Despite the absence of magnesium, the wheels have kept their original name. > Near the end of their lives, these stars enter the carbon burning phase, also making oxygen, sodium and neon.
 * At the center of every chlorophyll molecule, in every green plant, there is a magnesium ion.
 * Magnesium is one of the two dozen or so elements that are essential for life. Magnesium is vital in human metabolism, needed for over 300 biochemical reactions.
 * Magnesium fires must be treated with caution. Adding water to them produces hydrogen, which makes the fire burn even more fiercely.
 * If you try to put out a magnesium fire with carbon dioxide, you’ll also find yourself out of luck: magnesium burns in both pure nitrogen and pure carbon dioxide, and a carbon dioxide fire-extinguisher will feed a magnesium fire.
 * Mag wheels were once made of a magnesium alloy: magnesium is both light and strong. Mag wheels no longer include magnesium; the wheels did not last well and potentially were a fire hazard.
 * Magnesium is formed in stars with a mass of eight or more Earth suns.
 * Magnesium is the second most abundant metal in seawater. (Only sodium is more abundant.)
 * Our bodies need the correct amount of magnesium in our diets for us to sleep properly. If it’s too high or too low, we can suffer from sleep disturbance.
 * About 13% of our planet’s entire mass comes from magnesium. This means there’s enough magnesium within Earth to make a planet of the same mass as Mars AND have enough magnesium left over to make three more objects of the same mass as our moon.
 * There is a significantly higher proportion of magnesium below Earth’s crust than in it.

Daily Blog: 1. 4th of July was coming up so Me and oxygen got to together and lit up the sky. 2. HCL and me never got along very well whenever HCL would walk by I would just melt. 3. I have always been afraid of H2O since he doesn't agree with me. 4. Some of the military like to use me as a Flashbang since I tend to shine with others in my compound. 5. When Chloride and me are bonded we make a pretty good team for helping people as medicine. 6. A lot of the time I am mixed with aluminum to make things easier when bending. 7. Magnesium Sulfate is my name when Im need for healing otherwise they call me espon salt.
