    If you drop some NON-BURNING magnesium into water, then this will cause some light bubbling; and the magnesium will gradually get smaller until it vanishes. The water will turn progressively cloudier as this reaction forms magnesium hydroxide. You see, magnesium hydroxide is barely water soluble. In fact, putting a lot of magnesium hydroxide into some water will give you Milk of Magnesia. Those bubbles are hydrogen bubbles, by the way.

      Only at high temperatures because the oxide layer is poorly soluble.

    Magnesium is reactive enough to use water as a source of oxygen.

    Mg +H20(steam) ➡ MgO +H2
    Mg + H20(hot water) ➡ Mg(OH)2 + H2
