I did a lab, but I can't figure out what was made in the reaction because there are so many possibilities. Magnesium was put into a crucible and reheated many times until no reaction (the Mg strip burning or lighting up) was made. Of course, air is not only oxygen. It also has nitrogen in it so it also could have made a different formula than MgO. So what is the formula for this compound?
Also, it was later grounded up and put with water, then burned again until a small vapor came up. This also might have created a new compound, and I have no idea what it is other than MgO with H2O molecules. Any help would be appreciated.

On a somewhat foggy day my walking group saw what had to be a white rainbow. No color at all. It had the typical arch, but of white only. Appeared to be a concentration of light like a rainbow, but without the prismatic effect. How come?

I realize this will require a lot of paper to print out 100,000 numbers but this is what I want to do. I need all 100,000 'combinations' from 00000 to 99999 on a printable speadsheet. Sequential is fine but random would be better so long as all 100,000 possible combinations are there without repeats.
