When magnesium (Mg) reacts with hot boiled water, it releases hydrogen.
Magnesium is a chemical element with the symbol Mg and atomic number 12. It is a shiny grey solid that shares many physical and chemical properties with the other five alkaline earth metals (group 2 of the periodic table). Magnesium reacts with hot, boiling water to liberate hydrogen gas. Boiling water and magnesium react, forming Magnesium hydroxide MgOH2 and releasing hydrogen gas.
                                    Mg + 2H2O → Mg(OH)2 + H2
