How do you test hydrochloric acid and magnesium metal?

Does a magnesium metal strip rust when put in hydrochloric acid?
No
What substance is on the left side of a chemical reaction?
The substances on the left side of a chemical equation are the reactants. The right hand side substances are the products.i.e. A + B -------> C + D(reactants) (products)
What salt will be made when gold metal put in sulfuric acid?
Nothing, gold doesn't react with sulphuric acid
Is acid rain acid pollution?
Yes, acid rain is acid pollution. The exhaust from manufacturing put chemicals into the air that make it acidic. That acidity is carried by the air all over the globe and comes down when it rains.
What happens when you put a metal in sulfuric acid?
When you put a metal inside sulphuric acid, the metal quickly displaces the hydrogen and forms respective metal sulphate and hydrogen gas is liberated. But this happens in the case of reactive metals only. In case of Mercury, Copper, Silver, Gold And Platinum no reaction occurs.
How can you turn metal into rust?
Firstly, put metal into water. When these two chemicals engage, the watery metal get's exposed to oxygin which produces rust. So all you need for this is metal and water!
Why would an unknown chemical not be put into a metal container?
because it may have an adverse reation to the metal, for example and acid would react with the metal and disolve it!
Metal and acid?
M is going to represent a metal and HA is going to represent an strong acid where H is the Hydrogen ion and A is the other part of the acid such as Cl in Hydrochloric acid (HCl). The balanced chemical equation is: 2M + 2HA = 2MA + H2 The Hydrogen of the strong acid pops off and become Hydrogen gas, which explains the bubbling that you see when you put a metal in acid, and the metal bonds with the anion of the acid (the other part such as Cl).
What do you start off with in a chemical reaction?
It is neither, the reaction is the process. The chemicals 'put in' to the reaction are called reactants, and those formed by the reaction are products
Why shouldn't you store toxic chemicals in metal drum?
Because the drum could rust through and release the chemicals, or be contacted by electricity and cause a fire...if you need to store toxic chemicals in a metal drum, you put a drum liner in first, and pour the chemicals into the liner. A drum liner is a very thick plastic bag.
