Acid + metal --> salt + hydrogen. The salt is formed in solution, and may or may not be neutral. Many of the salts we first encounter in chemistry are neutral or nearly so: sodium chloride for instance. However, the salt of a weak acid is alkaline in solution, and the salt of a weak base is acidic. So if you react, say, zinc with acetic acid you will get hydrogen and zinc acetate in solution, and that will be alkaline.

What happens when magnesium reacts wth hydrochloric acid?
Magnesium is a metal located in group 2 in the periodic table. So, it reacts with hydrochloric acid to liberate hydrogen gas. The other product is magnesium chloride, which is a neutral salt.
Is table salt product of weak acid and strong base?
No - table salt is a product of a metal and a non-metal (Sodium and Chlorine). It can also be seen as the product of a strong acid (HCl) and a strong base (NaOH).
Acid plus metal carbonate equals?
acid + metal carbonate--> Salt+ Carbon dioxide+ water
What is the product of aluminum and hydrochloric acid?
Yes, acid + metal -> metal salt + hydrogen
Is potassium chloride a base acid or a base?
It is not a base or acid as it is neutral and has a PH value of 7
What can be made from the reaction of an acid with a metal?
When an acid reacts with a metal, we get a salt and hydrogen.
What happens when acid reacts to metal?
The product of the reaction is a salt of the metal.

What product does iron sulphide with acid gives?
a gas and metal
Is salt an acid or an alkili?
Salts are neither acidic or alkaline; they are neutral. Salts are a product of a chemical reaction between an acid and a base.
Which gaseous product is often produced when a metal reacts with an acid?
hydrogen gas
When acids and bases react the product other than water is?
A salt compound from the non-metal from the acid, and the metal from base.
What happens when you mix an acid with a metal oxide?
Generally metal oxides are soluble in acids but this is not mandatory. A metal salt is obtained as a product and hydrogen also.
Acid plus metal carbonate equals?
acid + metal carbonate--> Salt+ Carbon dioxide+ water
What is the product of aluminum and hydrochloric acid?
Yes, acid + metal -> metal salt + hydrogen
