Magnesium is the metal. Sulfuric acid is a compound.
Is liquid from a car battery an acid or an alkali?
This liquid is acidic. It is most commonly a mixture of 65% Distilled Water and 35% Sulfuric Acid.
An alkali metal with fewer than 10 protons in its nucleus?
acid
What type of acid do you need to melt metal?
Acids don't actually melt metal, they oxidize or corrode them. Usually producing the corresponding metal salt and hydrogen gas. Most strong acids (hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, perchloric, nitric, and sulfuric acids) will oxidize metals in this manner. Some weak acids such as hydrofluoric acid can oxidize metals. Some metals, such as the alkali metals and alkaline earth metals will react with virtually any acid and even water. Nitric acid can oxidize copper, which normally doesn't react with acid. Aqua regia, a mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid will oxidize gold and platinum, which are usually considered immune to corrosion.
What is a substance that gives up hydrogen in a chemical reaction an alkali or a base oran acid or a metal?
acid
What is the balanced equation for metal and dilute sulfuric acid?
In the example of an alkali metal (valence +1) with sulfuric acid: 2Na + H2SO4 --> Na2SO4 + H2 In the example of a Group 2 metal (valence +2) with sulfuric acid: Ca + H2SO4 --> CaSO4 + H2

What metal causes no reaction when reacting with sulfuric acid?
There are several metals which do not react with sulfuric acid; once such metal is gold.
Is sulfuric acid a metal?
No, not strictly speaking. Sulfuric acid is a mineral acid. It is made by reacting Sulfur Trioxide with water. Sulfur Trioxide IS a non-metal oxide.
