Hydrogen. The same is true for when most metals react with an acid.
hydrogen
No acid is formed. The reaction produces hydrogen gas and magnesium chloride, a salt.
there are many many acidic corosive materials. you will need to be more specific as in what type of acid the magnesium is reacting with. i assume you are at school and are talking about hydrochloric acid. If you add Magnesium metal to hydrochloric acid , the Magnesium will dissolve and form bubbles of hydrogen gas.
Hydrogen gas
Mg + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + H2 Magnesium plus hydrochloric acid equals magnesium chloride plus hydrogen gas.
Hydrogen (H2) This reaction follows the general formula for acid/metal reactuo0ns. Acis + Metal =- Salt + hydrogen . Here is the Balance reaction eq'n 2HCl(aq) + Mg(s) = MgCl2(aq) + H2(g) H2SO4(aq) + Mg(s) = MgSO4(aq) + H2(g) 2HNO3(aq) + Mg(s) = Mg(NO3)2(aq) + H2(g)

Magnesium reacts with acid to produce hydrogen gas. For example reaction of Magnesium with Hydrochloric acid is..... Mg +2HCl ----> MgCl2 + H2 gas
reacts with hydrogen gas given off.
Hydrogen gas
Bubbles of Hydrogen gas(H2)
Mg + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + H2 Magnesium plus hydrochloric acid equals magnesium chloride plus hydrogen gas.
I am assuming you are mixing Magnesium and Zinc metals with an acid which would produce Hydrogen gas.
Magnesium reacts with Nitric Acid to produce Magnesium nitrate plus Hydrogen gas. Mg + 2HNO3 ----> Mg(NO3)2 + H2
