Each atom has its own properties, including Magnesium. One of the most important properties an atom can have is the atomic mass.
So how much does Magnesium weight... or how much mass does it have?
The answer is 24,305. However there is a lot of secret stuff about Magnesium that most people don't know
Let's check it?

Magnesium Overview
Magnesium Atomic Mass
Description
Lightweight, malleable, silvery-white metal. Eighth most abundant element in the universe. Seventh most abundant element in the earth's crust.
Atomic Symbol
Mg (Magnesium)
Discovery
Discovered By: Sir Humphrey Davy
Year: 1808
Location: England
Discovered By: Sir Humphrey Davy

Location: England
State at 20 °C
solid
Uses
Used in alloys to make airplanes, missiles and other uses for light metals. Has structural properties similar to aluminium. But since it is flammable at temperatures of burning gasoline, its uses are limited.

Sources
Usually obtained by electrolysis of melted magnesium chloride (MgCl2) found in sea water. Each cubic mile of seawater contains about 12 billion pounds of magnesium.
