The reaction between a metal and acids is a characteristic for each pair metal-acid; the study of this type of reactions improve our knowledge about the chemical properties of metals and very important technologically - information about the resistance to corrosion in acidic media.

∙ 13y agoThe canonical sign is evolution of a gas (that gas being hydrogen).
"Evolution of a gas" is chemist-speak for "it fizzes and bubbles."

What is amphoteric metal?
Having the characteristics of an acid and a base and capable of reacting chemically either as an acid or a base.
What is the Formula for Hydrochloric acid reacting with magnesium?
Acid + a Metal = a salt + hydrogen Mg + H2SO4-----> MgSO4 + H2
How do scientists determine metal composition?
one method is to digest the metal using an acid and then use atomic absorption spectroscopy to determine which metal and how much of that metal is present in the solution. You can then work backwards to determine how much of a particular metal was in your sample (you need to know how much metal was used to make the solution).
Where does the gas come from when metal reacts with acid?
No. Copper will not react with most acids. It will react with nitric acid to produce nitrogen dioxide. Gold and platinum will not react with nitric acid but will react with aqua regia, a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acids to produce nitrogen dioxide and some nitric oxide. Rhenium does not react with acid at all.
What common compound is mabe by reacting salicylic acid with ethyl acetate?
This compound is acetyl salicylic acid or aspirin.
What is the equation for reacting a acid with a metal?
the metal dissolves
What is produced when reacting a metal with an acid?
What is produced when a acid reacts with a metal
What chemical reaction produces hydrogen?
Acid reacting with metal
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.
What is amphoteric metal?
Having the characteristics of an acid and a base and capable of reacting chemically either as an acid or a base.
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.
Why would you not make a potassium compound by reacting potassium metal with an acid?
Potassium is too reactive to mix with acid
Is sulfuric acid a non-metal oxide?
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.
Why Magnesium React with Hydrochloric Acid violently?
In general, acids react with metals in a replacement reaction, since metals can replace the hydrogen component of the acid. The more electropositive the metal is, and the stronger the acid it, the more energetic the reaction will be, and in the case of magnesium reacting with hydrochloric acid, we have a highly electropositive metal reacting with a very strong acid.
Why does copper not liberate hydrogen on reacting with dilute sulphuric acid?
it is because hydrogen gas usually liberates when an acid reacts with metal
What is a chemical equation for a non-metal reacting with acid?
2 HCl + F2 --> 2 HF + Cl2 HCl is hydrochloric acid, and when it reacts with F2 (Flourine-a non-metal), it yields hydroflouric acid and Chlorine
What is made when acid and metal reacts?
The general equation for reacting a metal oxide with an acid is: metal oxide + acid --> salt + water + hydrogen e.g Na2O + 2HCl --> 2NaCl + H2O Hope this helps seen as though no one else could answer this.
